A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Emma, and caring for children has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m the youngest of 11 siblings with 16 nieces and nephews (from 2 months to 13 years old), so I’ve been the “built-in babysitter” since I was young. I have about 6 years of babysitting experience and a little over 2 years as a part-time nanny.

I also have experience in youth athletics and child development through coaching Pre-K, Kindergarten, and middle school gymnastics, as well as high school cheer. I am a CNA and CPR certified, and I prioritize healthy communication, emotional well-being, limited screen time, and age-appropriate learning.

I love working with children of all ages and strive to create a warm, supportive environment that encourages growth, independence, and confidence.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Tate & I currently attend Eastern Illinois University where I am studying to be a Speech & Language Pathologist. I received my bachelor's degree from Baylor University in May 2024. I plan on working with children. I love kids & spending time with them. I have been employed as a camp counselor at a camp for kids who have special needs, have been a nanny for two different boys with autism, & have babysat for typically developing children age newborn-10 years old. I have experience working with children that have special needs that may be verbal, nonverbal, or use a communication device. I also had the privilege of working with children in Thailand that have developmental delays. I would consider myself creative, fun, and reliable. I am looking for a summer babysitting position. I look forward to hearing from you!
