I am a cheerful, positive and respectful person. I pride myself on my integrity and honesty. I adore spending time with children and have 15 years of experience working with children of all ages (newborns, infants, toddlers, school age and even teenagers) and also have experience caring for children with special needs. I am someone who loves the outdoors and believes that too much TV is never a good thing. Playing outside, playing games and encouraging children to use their imagination (via play and/or reading) is something that I am passionate about. Not only am I patient, caring and nurturing, I am also extremely organized and very detailed when it comes to housework. I actually enjoy tidying up while the children are napping or playing.

We had Gisella watch our newborn until she was old enough for daycare at 9 months. Gisella was thoughtful, resourceful, and reliable during her time with us. She cares deeply about building a relationship with children and the families she works with and it is evident in her work ethic and dedication. Anyone who hires Gisella as a caregiver will not be disappointed!

We have loved having Gisella care for our children.  She is an expert at infant care and does it with ease but is also so so great with our older boys who are both grade school age.  Our children always love having Gisella watch them, always very warm and engaging.  

Gisella is absolutely amazing and is adored by the entire family. She is kind, patient, and great with our little wild things. If she was available for full-time care we would be jumping at the chance. Genuinely, we cannot say enough good things about her. 

Gisella is fantastic - she always keeps the kids well entertained with age-appropriate play and projects. She clearly loves working with little ones and is very tuned into their learning and development. She has consistently been reliable and punctual. We have relied on her for kid pick-up, drop-offs, date night and weekend sitting.  We would recommend her without hesitation.  

Our whole family adores Gisella and the warm spirit and wonderful energy she brings to our home. She is honest, responsible, communicative, intelligent, organized, caring, energetic and tender hearted… with a great sense of humor to boot! Our toddler daughter immediately felt comfortable with Gisella and they have so much fun together. We trust Gisella implicitly and highly recommend her for nanny care.  The only reason we’re having to cut back on time with Gisella is because our daughter is beginning in a school program. We truly wish we could hang on to her forever, the next family to get to work with Gisella is a very lucky one. 

Gisella has been our go-to date night babysitter for about three and a half years. She is wonderful with our two kids, and always gets them to go to sleep at bedtime, which is something other caretakers have struggled with. Both our children really like her. She is super sweet and a good communicator. I highly recommend her.

Gisella worked with us for 2 months taking care of our 1.5 year old daughter. She was very gentle with her and communicated well with her. Our daughter always looked forward to Gisella coming and would talk about her frequently. Her schedule ultimately did not line up with our needs, but she gave us advance notice so that we could smoothly transition to someone else. We are so thankful to have known her and would recommend her highly!

We've interviewed a dozen nannies on care in the last few years and Gisella is the first we have hired. My husband, 3 boys and I cannot say enough good things about Gisella. We all adore her and plan to continue to use her for as long as she can put up with us;)

Gisella is wonderful! My two kids (ages 8 & 6) took to her immediately. She has a lot of experience with kids and it shows. She was also super helpful with their distance learning in a Spanish Immersion program. I highly recommend her. We will miss her!

Gisella has been with our family since my daughter was 2 months old.  We were impressed by her responsiveness and professionalism when we first met her.  After several interviews with many other nanny candidates, Gisella was a breath of fresh air as my husband and I almost immediately clicked with her in our first in person meeting.  She is very experienced with all age ranges and is a good communicator.  She plays well with our daughter and she helps us by keeping our daughter on the schedule/routine we've set.  She is thorough in her tracking of the day's activities and raises any problems she see immediately.  She has been super helpful in preparing meals for us on days that we can't and cleans up after herself and the baby throughout the day.  We are lucky to have found Gisella and to have had a reliable partner in caring for our daughter over the past several months.

We are new to care.com and hired Gisella for a date night job. She was a fantastic sitter and we would definitely recommend her. She made the process easy and comfortable and our daughter had a great time with her. Thank you!

Gisella watched my two boys (ages 5 & 7) while my wife and I had dinner out. The boys were fairly wound up when we left and she did great with them despite it being her first time over here. We've already arranged another sitting with her.

Gisella helped watch my three kiddos for a weeknight outing, and she did a fantastic job. Very communicative to my job posting, punctual and immediately warm and helpful as soon as she walked in the door. 

She enjoyed some playtime and stories with the kids, got them down for bed and even helped clean up a bit after they were asleep. We'd love to have her back!

Since the first time she came to babysit, Gisella has exceeded our expectations.  Gisella has been taking care of my children for over 2 years. She started as a weekend babysitter for my two young girls and transitioned into a full-time nanny once my son was born. The girls immediately took to her and my baby boy loves her dearly. Gisella goes above and beyond what is asked of her. She is dependable and flexible (which are key for 2 working parents). She is organized and pays attention to detail. She always wants to be helpful and contribute. She has a playful personality and manages to make a special emotional connection to each of my children. She was willing to do overnights and she travels with us. Gisella is a gem and, I think all the families with whom she has worked would agree, we feel lucky to have her in our lives. Please contact me with any questions about Gisella.

Gisella cares for our three year old son part-time and has been helping our family for almost two years. My son is very shy and slow-to-warm, and he instantly bonded with Gisella. She has a special gift of being able to connect with kids, while establishing good/healthy boundaries with them. I'm so thankful that we found her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, fun, and reliable caregiver. She's the best!

We were fortunate enough to have Gisella be part of our family for the past 15 months. In that time, she took care of our now 4- and 2-year old boys in a loving, dependable manner. She followed our routine and had open communication with us regarding any concerns or issues. The boys quickly grew to love her, as did we. Our home was always tidied when we returned, usually better than how we left it! She was flexible and became a friend, always showing respect for all members of our family, including our old dog. I would highly recommend her if you'd like to be able to leave your home and not worry whether your kids are being taken care of in the same manner you would be loving on them.

We feel so lucky to have come across Gisella. As a very nervous Mom hesitant to hire a caregiver I seriously feel beyond thankful to have found her! She is sincere, dependable, communicates very well, and cares for our two children like they are her own. I trust that Gisella will take care of our children whether she is on her own walking them to the park or in the other room watching them while I work. I work from home so I am around while she watches the kids and she is so comfortable and friendly to be around, I feel like she is already part of our family!

Gisella helps us on a part time basis every week.  She is wonderful with our kids, and our very shy son warmed up to her very quickly and now gets so excited when she is coming over.  She is great with babies and toddlers - she manages our four month old and 2 year old together very well.  She talks to them and plays with them, singing songs, reading books and playing with toys.  She is always punctual for our early start time (6:30 AM!) and she is very reliable.  She helps out with chores around the house (laundry, grocery shopping, cooking) and always leaves the house cleaner than she found it.  She is quite a good cook, and she is a master laundry folder.  She is also very communicative.  We couldn't be happier with her.  We highly recommend her!

Gisella watches our twins one night a week, and other nights when we need a babysitter and she is available.  She is very conscientious and reliable, and our girls love her.  She makes dinner (and always leaves the kitchen clean), reads books, and manages bath and bedtime.  It is especially nice that she speaks Spanish with the kids, and makes a point of engaging and playing with them.

We started using Gisella a few months ago for date nights and couldn't be happier. She shows up on time, is super responsible and our 3 year old loves her. He gets very excited when we tell him Gisella is coming over! I will continue to call her and would highly recommend her to anyone else!
