Hi, I’m Emily,

I have a BA (Hons) degree in childhood and youth studies and have worked with children for 20 years, from newborns to teenagers. I’ve also been an Ofsted registered nanny and childminder since 2012. All of these experiences help me to understand children and families’ individual needs.

I’m experienced, reliable, and LOVE working with children.

Based in St Ives, Cornwall I offer flexible childcare, including evening babysitting and holiday nanny. I also offer a childminding service at my Ofsted registered house in St Ives.

I offer a calm, friendly service with many opportunities to play and learn inside and outside in the local and natural spaces and beaches surrounding St Ives.

I look forward to meeting you and your children.

Parent Feedback

“My daughter first went to Emily when she was six months old, I was very nervous about leaving her when she was so young but I had no choice due to work commitments. I instantly knew when I met Emily that I could relax. My daughter loves going to Emily’s lovely home and I get daily photos and messages about how she is. I love that Emily gets outside and goes for walks and my daughter always has a smile for her when I drop her off. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emily and I feel lucky to have found her”.

Leanne

“We used Emily regularly as a childminder when my boys were little. My boys are now school age and we continue to use Emily as a babysitter and the occasional day of minding. The boys love their time with Emily. She sets up age-appropriate activities that follow the children’s interests and needs. They spend time outdoors, whatever the weather! Emily is kind, caring and highly qualified. I always feel so at ease leaving my children in her care. Emily always sends photo updates during the day. It’s great to see little snapshots of what they are up to! I would not hesitate to recommend Emily to anyone in need of a babysitter or childminder”

Klara

“We have used Emily for evening babysitting services for many years whilst holidaying in St Ives. There is always clear communication when booking, she is always on time, and my 8-year-old daughter loves spending time with her before bedtime.

We would not hesitate to recommend Emily to other parents.”
