Hi! I'm a playful and energetic caregiver who loves turning everyday moments into fun, imaginative adventures. With a background in theater and game design, I'm great at keeping kids engaged through creativity, storytelling, and games that spark their curiosity. I truly believe play is one of the best ways to learn, grow, and build confidence, and I love being part of that process. I'm also a confident cook who enjoys preparing tasty, kid-friendly meals (and sneaking in some healthy ingredients too!). Whether it's arts and crafts, outdoor play, or a cozy movie night, I'm all about creating a safe and joyful environment. I'm approachable, responsible, and excited to bring positive energy into your home!
Gabe is great with the kids! It’s not easy to find sitters who will engage with their interests and get to know them, but Gabe is one of the few I’ve found who really cares about each kid as an individual. We adore Gabe!!
