Hi, I am Emma, an Eastern Suburbs Mum with 2 Fabulous kids and amazing Husband,
We love living in Clovelly and have built the most incredible community amongst friends and family. That is one of the things I love most about living in the East, it promotes such a village lifestyle and as they say it takes a village to raise a family!!!!
I work in the property sector as an Auctioneer and love what I do! I am a big believer in having your own thing going on. Whether its work, volunteering, or a hobby. As mums we do so much for everybody else that it is so important to do something for yourself.
Where and how long have you lived in Sydney’s east?
I have been living in Clovelly for 10 years and have truly fallen in love with the Cloey Vibe and community. I have lived all over Sydney, in the city, north and east and Cloey was the one that stole my heart.

Favourite Park:
Burnies Park. Great flying fox. That’s my local and we love grabbing a bag of lollies at FoodWorks on the way.
Favourite Beach:
Clovelly. Of Course. Is there anything that beats having a swim and not getting sandy feet.
We love jumping off the slab on a hot summers day after school
Favourite kid friendly cafe:
We love the Bogey Hole cafe at Bronte. A plate of hot crispy bacon and orange juice after nippers on a Sunday. My kids love it.
Favourite Coffee Spot:
I don’t do coffee. But Eugene’s in Bronte do a wicked Chai!!

Van’s on Clovelly rd. Menu is excellent and the wine list is perfect. It’s intimate and the staff are fabulous.
Where in the east have you yet to explore and would like to ?
I have just recently started to meet some friends in Rose bay for lunch and coffee and I love that it has everything there. Definitely need to spend more time there
What would you like to see improve in the eastern suburbs?
I would like to see more of those water bottle filling stations at the parks and playground. FYI. Burnies park need one.
Favourite Local Shop:
By San Sebastian Coogee. They stock such a great range of cool kids clothing and they open at 830am so when you have forgotten to grab that present for the Sat Birthday party you can always rely on them.
Favourite wet weather location:
Randwick Ritz. Become a member. It’s the best cinema in Sydney.
Favourite Local family Weekend Activity?
We love to roller-skate and bike ride in centennial park. I used me be a roller-skating waitress back in the day and I love putting on my skates and doing a few laps with the kids.

I get to see a lot of Sydney Suburbs with by business, and it fair to say I feel very lucky to live in Clovelly.
Motherly advice?
Be a parent not a friend! It will pay off in the long run.
