A little bit about me

I'm a child caretaker with 25+ years of experience. I've worked with infants, children, kids, teens and adults with intellectual disabilities. I have all my credentials, ECE credits and even cooking certifications (that I forget about sometimes! Thanks for reminding me haha!) I got into nannying through chance, but stayed cause I love working with families as a team and being friends with tons of adorable sweet little balls of laughter and silliness!

A little bit about me

I’m a dependable, high‐energy caregiver with over five years of experience looking after children of all ages. I’m about to graduate from UC Davis with a degree in Human Biology and plan to become a pediatric occupational therapist. My coursework in developmental psychology helps me understand each child’s emotional and cognitive needs. Over high school and the past two years, I’ve regularly babysat for multiple families, creating safe, fun environments that emphasize limited screen time, outdoor play, and hands‐on activities. I’ve also grown up with pets and am comfortable caring for all types of animals. As the children I’ve recently worked with have grown more independent, I’m seeking summer employment before graduate school. I would love the chance to meet your family and see if we’re a great fit!

A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Emmalea, but I go by Emma. Between working at a school, with children ages 4-12, and babysitting for family and friends, I have around 4-5 years of childcare experience.

I am most familiar with working with families who practice gentle parenting/Montessori teaching. I believe that boundaries are good and important, but it's equally as important to give children the space and time for free and creative play.

As an Ecological Restoration major, I LOVE being outside! So if your child(ren) love to play outside, I am your gal! I am very familiar with the local flora and fauna and I love sharing my knowledge with young minds! :)

Although I am 23, I am truly a kid at heart. I love to have fun, as long as it's safe :) I am not the best at writing bios, so I'd love to sit down and chat over the phone or in person to see if I'd be the right nanny for you and your family!
