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!
