About Gerda

Experience: 10 yrs

Get to experience the 'Gerda brand' noted for top notch infant care and you will be amazed at the leaps in developmental milestones(gross and fine moto skill development, sleep, feeding , social skills etc) your precious little one will make with me on board . My care style involves a lot of careful observation, analysis , a study of temperament and personality to give off the 'Gerda effect'. I look forward to sharing my expansive knowledge base with a family that shares these same ideals. I do function as a professional infant nanny and newborn care specialist providing services in a day , overnight or virtual situation.

My husband and I truly cannot say enough positive things about Greda. After our baby spent three weeks in the NICU, bringing her home was both joyful and overwhelming. As new parents, we were understandably very nervous about entrusting our little one to anyone else, especially during those first nights. From the very beginning, Greda put us completely at ease. Her knowledge, experience, and calm presence were exactly what we needed during such a vulnerable time. She has a natural confidence and warmth that immediately builds trust, and it is clear how deeply passionate she is about the children she cares for. As our baby grew, we were so impressed that we asked Greda to continue helping during the day as well. She has been truly exceptional. Our baby attends physical therapy once a week, and we often felt she made even greater progress during her time with Greda. The attention, intention, and care she provides are simply unmatched. Greda is, without question, the best of the best. We are incredibly grateful for the role she has played in our daughter’s early development and in giving us peace of mind as parents. Any family who has the opportunity to work with her will be extremely fortunate. We only wish we could keep her for years to come.
