This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 3 yrs
Cultivating a nurturing and engaging environment for children is my greatest passion. My 25 years of experience caring for children aged newborn to 5 have solidified my commitment to their well-being and development. I have a college degree, coursework in Early Child Development, and I am First Aid and CPR Training certified. As a patient and friendly caregiver, I enjoy playing outdoor sports and educational games. I communicate with parents through verbal communication at pickup, and I'm happy to help with light housekeeping. I am comfortable caring for one child. While I prefer not to enforce strict rules, I will always ensure your child's safety and happiness. I hope to bring my love for learning and play to your family.

Gabby watched our son from 6 months till he was 3.5 and has been a very important part of our family functioning over the last 3 years. Gabby is incredibly kind, calm, patient and nurturing and loves our son deeply. Gabby is one of our son's favorite people and he talks about her and her family all the time! Gabby is great about taking our son out into the community to the library, playgroups, parks, museums etc and often takes him out on public transportation, which he loves. They spend a lot of time outside, reading, and doing art. Gabby has always provided a lot of opportunities for him to do art and sensory play as well as working on appropriate developmental skills. Gabby is very consistent, reliable, and a great communicator. Neighborhood friends who run into her with our son always say how amazing she is, which we already know!
