Aloha! My name is Emma Sharp, and I recently graduated summa cum laude from the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa with a BBA in Management Information Systems. While I now work in business, my passion for childcare has been a constant throughout my life. As the oldest of three, taking care of children has always come naturally to me. I have years of experience working with kids of all ages, from babysitting and nannying for over 50 families to volunteering in childcare programs at church, school, and within my community. One of my most meaningful experiences was teaching refugee children from Africa and the Middle East how to swim and stay safe around water. I’m deeply passionate about childhood drowning prevention and love finding ways to make learning fun and engaging. Over the years, I’ve cared for children across all age groups and personalities, adapting to their unique needs and interests. Whether it’s playing their favorite games, reading bedtime stories, or encouraging creativity through arts and crafts, I love seeing kids light up doing what they enjoy most. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones and creating wonderful memories together! Mahalo nui loa!
