A little bit about me

As a dedicated mother of three and a loving wife, I bring hands-on experience, patience, and a deep understanding of child development to every care giving situation. While I may not have formal nanny experience, I’ve spent years managing the day-to-day needs of children from infancy through the teen years. I understand how to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment that supports emotional well-being, learning, and routine.

I’m dependable, organized, and naturally nurturing. Whether it’s preparing meals, helping with homework, managing schedules, or encouraging creative play, I approach every task with care and attention. I know the importance of consistency, trust, and communication when caring for children, and I strive to build strong relationships with both kids and parents.

If you’re looking for someone who truly understands the rhythm of family life and will care for your child as if they were my own, I would love the opportunity to support your household.

A little bit about me

Hi families! My name is Emma, and I recently relocated to Nashville from Dallas, TX. I have over 8 years of paid childcare experience, including consistent babysitting for local families, volunteering through church programs, and hands-on, live-in care for my infant niece and toddler nephew.

While I’ve explored different professional paths over the years, childcare has always remained the most meaningful and fulfilling work for me. It’s where I feel most purposeful, and I genuinely love investing in children during such important stages of their development.

I have experience supporting children ranging from infantry to middle school, some on the autism spectrum and those with ADHD.

Above all, I understand the trust parents place in someone caring for their children. Safety, communication, reliability, and consistency are extremely important to me, and I take that responsibility seriously.

A little bit about me

Hi there!

I’m Noeli.
I graduated from the University of West Georgia. I majored in both German Language and Literature and Global Studies with a Spanish minor.
I speak a few languages including Spanish, German and some Turkish.
Interestingly, I didn’t intend to work with children at first, although I’ve always loved caring for children, but I really discovered I had a passion for this after working with children abroad. Since then, I’ve been working with children nonstop.
I have been working as a babysitter/nanny for at least 3 years.
I am CPR/First Aid Certified.
My favorite activities to do with the children in my care are crafts and language learning but I tailor my care to the child’s interests!
I’ve worked with children of various ages ranging from under a year old to 16 years old.
Happy to answer any other questions! :)
