About Gemma

Reviewed on 10/1/2019

I cannot adequately express how truly terrific Gemma has been. We are so thankful to have Gemma take care of our now 4 month old son twice per week. He is all smiles whenever she comes over, and she is such a natural with him; he just loves her, and she cares for him like he is her own. On the days I get to work from home, it gives me great joy hearing her read to him, sing to him, and play with him from a distance. She reads his signals extremely well, addressing diaper changes and feedings right at the moments he needs them, often avoiding situations where he could get fussy. Her patience with him has been exceptional. Prior to hiring Gemma, our son was sleeping on loungers. Since she has joined us, she has successfully gotten him to sleep flat in his crib, and is now currently working with him to transition from the swaddle. She has adapted to his and our needs flawlessly as he continues to grow and change. While he is sleeping, she will entertain our dog and do light chores in the house like sweeping and laundry, which is a huge help to us, but she is very quick to respond to our son when he wakes. On the days I have to leave for work, it is always heart-wrenching being away from him, but with Gemma, I feel a great sense of relief. I can say with confidence that I trust Gemma with our son almost more than I trust myself with him! We are so happy and grateful to have such a special person care for our son. Thank you so much for all that you do!
