Meet Emily

Owner, SMS® Raleigh

Being originally from the midwest, my husband Brandon and I have fallen in love with life in the South and we have loved raising our family here. We have 4 little girls, Emerson, Fallon, Navy, and Merritt so we understand how crazy life can get.

Meet Kaley

Owner, SMS® Raleigh

My husband Austin and I enjoy exploring the Triangle, trying new restaurants, attending sporting events (Go Canes!) as well as spending time at the trails and parks in the surrounding area. My time as a sitter for SMS® Indy prepared me to better understand the needs of families and how the SMS® services can help to relieve those burdens.
