Hi there! My name is Emily and I have 8+ years of experience in the childcare field! I currently am studying social work and plan to work with childcare professionals and help children through different types of therapy. I grew up in a very diverse family and have experienced adoption and special needs. Both come with difficult challenges but I hope to use my gained knowledge to help other with similar situations. My job is to let you rest and ensure your children are having fun in a safe and educational environment. I've been told I have an old soul and I pride myself in keeping childcare simple just like childhood should be. I try to ensure electronics are turned off and that whoever I'm watching is having fun without a screen.

Hello! I recently relocated to Asheville to pursue a doctoral degree. I consider myself to be friendly, organized, and self motivated. As a sitter, I am happy to involve your kiddos in a wide variety of activities. I am comfortable working with food allergies, as well as meal prepping, cooking, and baking. I also grew up with a sibling who has autism and ADHD, so I am familiar with the different needs that children on the spectrum may have. Along with this, I am CPR/First Aid certified and used to work as a volunteer firefighter. Above all, I want you and your family to feel confident that those who mean the most to you are in safe and capable hands.
