About Gail
Experience: 10 yrs
My name is Gail and I am a mother of 5 children, now adults. My youngest are twins who are 26 years old. My husband (who is retired from the NYPD) and I have been living in Carmel for 29 years. I was a teacher of elementary and special education for 8 years. When our children were young my husband and I decided it would be best for me to stay home because of his hectic schedule. I also have 5 years of experience working in pre-k classrooms. I started babysitting 11 years ago for a family of 3 children, including twins, until 2019. I then babysat for 2 other families part time until 2024. At this point I am looking for babysitting jobs on the weekends for a few hours here and there for date nights, weddings, etc. I have experience watching children of all ages besides my own. I have an interest in sports and will still shoot around with a basketball, toss a football & baseball/softball. I love reading books to children and teaching them how to play board games.
Most recent review
Gail has been a coworker and friend since 1997. Gail is caring, responsible, loving, considerate, knowledgeable and most importantly, has great patience with children of all ages. In and out of the classroom, Gail has years of experience working with children dealing with special educational needs and long-term physical illnesses. My children spent many days which turned into years with her family and consider Gail's home their second home.
