About Gertrude

From a young age, I've felt a strong passion for childcare, inspired by the joy of watching children learn and grow. With over three years of experience caring for children from infants to pre-teens, I provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. I'm patient, attentive, and creative, and I enjoy planning fun, educational activities like outdoor play, games, and crafts. I am a certified EMT, which allows me to stay calm under pressure and prioritize safety at all times. I also have over three years of experience working with individuals with intellectual disabilities, strengthening my patience, adaptability, and ability to meet each child's unique needs. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children, assisting with meals, light housekeeping, and transportation. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, have Early Child Development coursework, and provide regular updates so families feel confident and informed.
