Hi! My name is Emiliana, and I love caring for both children and pets. I'm responsible, dependable, and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable while you're away. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, reading bedtime stories, or simply keeping them entertained, I'm happy to help. I'm also an animal lover who enjoys caring for pets of all kinds. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, feeding, or plenty of love and attention, I'll treat them like they're my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with the people and pets you care about most. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, compassionate care so you can focus on work, errands, or a well-deserved night out, knowing your loved ones are in great hands!
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Rio Rancho Estates for work.

I am an upcoming junior in high school who is responsible, dependable, and enjoys working with children. Through multiple nursing and first aid classes in middle and high school, I have developed valuable skills in safety awareness, basic medical knowledge, and responding calmly in emergency situations. I have completed CPR training and was previously certified in CPR and the use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). My training has prepared me to prioritize children's safety and well-being while providing attentive and compassionate care. I am eager to use these skills to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for the families I work with.
UNM student seeking childcare/pet care opportunities!
Over my 4+ years of babysitting experience, I have developed a great passion for childcare! With sitting, I try to take a creative approach, avoiding screen time when possible-- I love setting up activities and cultivating an environment that encourages curiosity!
When I am not taking care of kids, I study Anthropology, play flute, and cook. I am excited to bring my experience and skill set to families in !
