She was brought up in Much Birch, England, and wanted to act from the age of three. Aged 12, she took the lead role of Oliver Twist in Monmouth Comprehensive School's production of Oliver! At Hereford Sixth Form College she continued her acting career by taking on the role of Cherry Barnum in their production of "Barnum."

In the week after herself graduating from the Central School of Speech and Drama, she took the name Emma Stansfield under Equity rules (as actress Emma Thompson had already registered the name), and landed a role in the teenage play Sparkleshark. Stansfield had her first TV roles in the television series Holby City and The Royal, and then made her West End Theatre debut in Andrew Lloyd Webber's production of Daisy Pulls It Off.

In 2008 she starred as an English nurse called Louise in the Irish drama Whistleblower, documenting the exposure and disbarring of Michael Neary, screened in August. In 2010 she played Belinda in the BBC television pilot Reunited. She also guest starred in the fourth season of Showtime's show The Tudors as the Protestant martyr Anne Askew.
