A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Emily Sculli and I am from Columbus, Ohio. I am in the process of moving to the Normal Heights/North Park area and am looking for a full time nannying/house manager position.
I have been working with kids for 8 years now, professionally as a nanny for 5, and have become a house manager for families I’ve already babysat for! I have a two bachelor degrees from The Ohio State University, and also have taught children who are preschool aged all the way through middle school.
I’m very active and love to be outdoors, but when I’m not I love reading and watching movies. I’m also very family-oriented, and excited to finally live down the street from my older sister!

A little bit about me
Caring for and teaching children has always been my greatest passion. I previously owned a daycare in Pacific Highlands, where I cared for children from infants to age 5. I have extensive experience with infants-providing nurturing care, establishing feeding and nap routines, and supporting early developmental milestones. Before owning my daycare, I worked as a nanny for several families, gaining years of hands-on experience with children of all ages.
In addition to childcare, I enjoy tutoring children in German and offering swim lessons. I believe in helping kids learn, grow, and explore the world around them in a safe, loving, and positive environment. Their curiosity, energy, and creativity inspire me daily, and it brings me joy to help them build confidence and feel supported.

I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience, patience, and genuine love for children to your family.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Angelica! I have a 1 year old baby girl and an amazing husband. I have been a nanny for about 3 years and have taken care of a variety of ages! From newborn to teens, and I’ve truly enjoyed getting to meet every single one of them! It’s super important to me to not just build a relationship and a bond with the kiddos but also with the parents! My values are my faith, family, and health! A little bit of my background, I am the only daughter. I grew up with all boys, so to see them exemplify how it looks like to take care, nurture, and love me has given me the reason to why I wanted to take care of families and their little ones. I cannot wait to meet who I get to be lucky with on joining along. Let’s definitely chat more and get to know each other.
