A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Emma. I just moved to Chicago from St.Louis. I was looking for work & decided to go back to my roots. My first job was taking care of two kids ages 5 & 12, 4 days a week, all summer. I have two years of experience doing this work, but besides that being the oldest of 3 younger siblings has prepared me for child care. In edition to having flexible hours, I love to cook & am an extremely neat person who wouldn't mind doing some light house keeping. Also since we're still in the middle of a pandemic I just want to note that I rarely leave my apartment unless I have to go on an essential trip to the store so I wouldn't be exposing you or your kids to any risk. Hope to meet you & your kids soon!
