About Us

Emmelie Banet, M.Ed. - Owner/CEO

I’m a Christian wife and mother, raising our children just outside of Austin, Texas. Working with children has been my passion for as long as I can remember. That passion first took shape in 2006 when I became a church group leader for kids ages 4 to 10. I quickly realized this was more than a job—it was a calling.


To deepen my knowledge and skills, I earned both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Education, with a strong emphasis on child psychology. Over the years, I’ve worked in a wide variety of roles, including daycare settings, nanny positions, and teaching in schools. I began my first formal teaching position in 2012 and have been dedicated to education ever since.


Along the way, I’ve completed training in child development, child safety, recognizing and preventing abuse, supporting children with special needs, and exploring educational methods like Waldorf and Montessori.


First Choice Nannies was born from a dream I’ve carried in my heart for many years. I truly believe God has called me to serve families in this way—to help them find exceptional, trustworthy care for their children. It’s an honor to walk alongside parents in this journey, offering peace of mind and support they can rely on.

Kristi Goyette - Executive Administrator/ Placement Specialist

Hi, I’m Kristi! I’m originally from South Louisiana, but I’ve called Texas home for over 30 years—and for the past 11, I’ve been happily rooted here in Austin.


Throughout my career, I’ve worn many hats across a wide range of industries: retail, nutrition and health food, consumer banking, retirement education, corporate insurance, and even state tax filings. No matter the field, one thing has always remained the same—my commitment to doing every job with integrity and purpose. As a Christian, I strive to approach each opportunity in a way that honors God and serves others well.


These days, I’m a stay-at-home mom who enjoys the quieter joys of life—gardening, raising butterflies, baking bread, tending to my houseplants, and, of course, spending time with my cats. I have a deep love for nurturing growth—whether it’s in a garden, a home, or a community.


It brings me genuine joy to help connect families and churches with trustworthy, heart-led services. I look forward to supporting you in finding just the right fit for your family’s needs.
