A little bit about me
Hello my name is Emma! I am a 20 year old women who is going to school for nursing. I hope to one day work in a pediatric unit and want to gain experience working with children asap! I do not have experience with caring for children other than siblings. However, I have more than 1 year of experience working as a Certified Nursing Assistant in long term and rehabilitative care facilities. This has given me valuable insight into working with humans that are 100% dependent, keeping personal items cleaned and organized, and have great experience with keeping up on mine and others hygiene! Lastly, I also love all animals (I grew up on multiple ranches) and don’t mind cleaning up and providing an extra hand around the house if needed!

Nanny Andrea
"We have been lucky enough to have Andrea nanny our one and sometimes two boys. She’s truly a part of the family. She’s always on time, entertaining the boys, and even cleans when the boys are napping. They love her so much they cry when she leaves! Our boys enjoy being outdoors most of the day and require A LOT of energy. I never worry about their safety or comfort. I 10/10 recommend her."

Nanny Silvana
"Silvana was a very nurturing nanny. She had the difficult task of being the first nanny to care for my 6 month old son. She knew what to do and helped my son quickly overcome the separation anxiety. She brought him toys and played the flute for him to introduce him to new things. I am very grateful for the care she provided."
