Hi I’m Emily

I create thoughtful Squarespace websites for purpose-driven entrepreneurs and small business owners who've outgrown where they are.

I'm talking about people who are good at what they do. Really good. You've built something meaningful over several years. Your clients love working with you. Word of mouth keeps you busy.

But somewhere along the way, your website didn't keep up. And now it doesn't reflect who you've become or what you've built.

I listen first

Before I touch anything, we talk. Really talk. I want to understand where you've been, what's working, what's been frustrating you, and what you actually need, not what some template says you should have. Your business is unique, and your website should feel like it.

Calm, not chaos

If you've felt overwhelmed by other designers or DIY builders, that won't happen here. I don't rush you. I don't use pressure tactics. I explain things clearly, check in often, and make sure you feel confident about every decision. You're hiring me to reduce stress, not add to it.

I totally get it

I've worked with enough business owners to know what this feels like, the embarrassment of sharing a site you've outgrown, the mental load of knowing it needs fixing. I understand. And I'll meet you exactly where you are with warmth, professionalism, and zero judgment.

If your business has outgrown your website...

You might be here because:

Your website was fine when you started, but now it feels like it's holding you back rather than supporting you.

You avoid sharing your URL because you know it doesn't represent the quality of work you actually do.

You've tried DIY platforms and felt overwhelmed by every single decision, fonts, layouts, colors, which template, which plugin, what goes where.

You're busy. You're good at what you do. And honestly? You just want someone kind and capable to take this off your plate.

If that sounds like you, I'd LOVE to help.

Is this you?

A few years in

You've been running your business for a while now. You've found your feet, you know your clients, and you're ready for a website that reflects the expertise you've built. Let's create something that feels like the real you, clear, professional, and built to last.

Ready to relaunch

Maybe your business has evolved. Maybe you've niched down, changed direction, or simply outgrown where you started. If you're relaunching or repositioning, I'll help you create a site that supports this new chapter with clarity and confidence.

Ongoing partnership

Once your site is live, you don't have to figure out updates and tweaks on your own. My Ongoing Monthly Support service means I'm here for monthly maintenance, small updates, and peace of mind. Think of it as having a web designer on call.

My Story

emily-hart-design, squarespace, my-story

My path to web design has been wonderfully winding.

I started as a web designer, then spent a decade as a picture editor, learning to see what's working and what isn't, and how to make thoughtful edits that improve and enhance. I became a mum, trained as a reflexologist, and built my own practice.

When it came time to create my website, I went back to my roots and built it on Squarespace. As I worked through it, I realised how much I'd missed this work and how much I could help other business owners navigate the same overwhelm and uncertainty.

Each part of my journey feeds into what I do now. Design gave me structure and clarity. Editing taught me how to refine carefully. Reflexology taught me how to create calm space for people and listen deeply.

Over the years, I've worked with brilliant business owners, therapists, coaches, consultants, creatives, who were doing incredible work but felt stuck by their online presence. What I've learned is that most people don't need flashy. They need functional, thoughtful, and calm. They need someone who listens.

So that's what Emily Hart Design is: a calm, collaborative space where established business owners can finally get a website that feels right. No pressure. No hype. Just honest, thoughtful work that makes your life easier.

If that resonates with you, I'd love to chat.
