A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Emma, and I'm a 24 year old student looking to work as a babysitter or nanny. I'm from Sonoma, CA originally, but I moved to San Diego in 2019 for school to obtain my degree in Child Development. I have six younger brothers and two younger sisters, so it goes without saying that I have a decent amount of experience with children of all different age groups. Growing up in such a large family fostered a love for working with children, and so I plan to pursue a career as a Child Life Specialist. I also worked as a nanny/tutor for a young girl during my senior year of high school, and can provide references. I am currently working through the Child Development program at Miramar College, and I am just about ready to transfer to SDSU, so I have some Early Childhood Education and Child Development/Psychology credits under my belt. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions at all!

A little bit about me

I was born and raised in Italy and moved to the States 20 years ago. I am both an Italian and American citizen and I turned 50 years old this year. My grandparents were farmers so I grew up surrounded by nature. I love animals and little humans, and I really enjoy spending time and caring about them. I am patient and a good listener, I am organized and flexible. I love sci-fi and fantasy movies. I sing a long and dance to any rhythm. And let's not forget, I cook very good Italian dishes!
