I am an energetic, creative, and deeply caring childcare professional with 15 years of experience in nannying and household management, along with a background in early childhood development. I have worked with children from infancy through 16 years old. I currently have weekend and weekday evening availability for date nights and occasional care.

I asked Gozde to help with my 1 year old and 3 month old over thanksgiving, Christmas and Christmas Eve and date night. She's excellent with my daughter and the baby. She has helped us so much. I highly recommend her. I will be using her services again if she's available. She's very calm and also helped with light housework

We were going to be in town for a few days and wanted a sitter to watch our 4 month old for a date night. We contacted Gözde based on her great reviews and asked to video chat with her ahead of time, which she was happy to do. This was the first time we had ever traveled with an infant, so we were a bit jittery, but Gözde was very communicative and experienced, which was reassuring. 

Our daughter caught a cold a couple of days beforehand and we let her know in case it was an issue, but she didn't mind. Everything went as well as we could have hoped for, and we were very happy with her. Showed up exactly on time, and our daughter immediately connected with her. Got her to sleep even with the cold, which has not been an easy task lately. Would definitely hire again. 


Gozde is amazing!! She was a full-time nanny for us for 2 years starting when our daughter was just 3 months old. She always went above and beyond both in finding educational/ exciting and age appropriate activities for my daughter to do, as well as helping around the house with whatever needed to get done. Gozde was wonderful in sending me videos and pictures throughout the day so I always felt connected. She was always punctual, never sick and always flexible to come early or stay late. We adore Gozde as does our daughter who still asks about her on a regular basis. We were so sad when she and her husband moved out of state. I would give Gozde my highest recommendation for anyone that wants a truly loving, caring, conscientious and skilled nanny.   

Gozde watched our two boys, ages 4 and 2, over the course of a year for occasional date nights.  Both my boys loved her as she would play games and legos with them. She was dependable and always showed up on time and was flexible as to how late she could stay.  She was also able to get our 2 year old happily to bed, which was no easy task.  I highly recommend Gozde as she was an amazing help to our family.

Gozde helped us out on very short notice. Our girls absolutely loved her! We will definitely be using her again in the future. She is extremely punctual and played well with our girls. She also listened to everything I asked and helped out with light housekeeping.

We were in in Denver visiting from Pennsylvania and we had contacted Gozde because she had many great reviews. We spoke on the phone and she made me feel very comfortable about having her come babysit for us. She came exactly on time and followed my schedule for my two boys exactly how I asked her to. We used her twice while on vacation and the second day, my son ended up being super fussy the whole time for her but she was very vigilant about possible causes and gave me updates when I kept texting her to see how they were. My son ended up getting FOUR molars the next two days so you can just imagine how patient she had to be to deal with a teething fussy baby. The house was left in the condition it was left (toys put away and no dishes waiting in sink) and I felt very comfortable having her with my boys. She even walked them a few blocks away to the park so they could get some energy out. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, compassionate, caring, nurturing babysitter. She had someone pick her up and drop her off both days but like I said, she was on time and also left promptly. Coming from Pennsylvania, her rates were a couple dollars more than I usually pay BUT I think it is just a state to state difference. Again, if you hire her, you won't be disappointed.

Gozde is a wonderful, caring, nanny with a great personality. Gozde nanny-shared for my daughter and nephew for about a year (from ~3 months age to 1 year). Both children loved her, as did the parents since she listened well to our requests and gave us great feedback on our children's days. Especially when she saw patterns we needed to know about (i.e., time to drop to one nap a day from two). She helped see our kids through many firsts such as first words, foods, clapping, standing, etc. Gozde would take our children to story time at the local library, and would sing to, read to, and play with our babies. Gozde is a very dependable person who was willing to work even when our kids were sick, and was trusted to give our children the correct medicine dosages at the correct times. She consistently showed up on time and rarely took personal days. I highly recommend Gozde and know she was a terrific nanny for my family and I know will make a terrific nanny for another family.

We were in town from Buffalo, NY, visiting Denver and wanted a night out without kids. We interviewed with Gozde ahead of time and we did facetime with her. She came on time, and took care of four kids, aged 8, 4 and twins of 10 months with ease. She was professional and seemed to really love children. We felt comfortable leaving the kids with her for the night and once we returned, all was well. We would recommend her highly.

The babysitter that I planned on using canceled with an hour and a half until the planned time.  I emailed Gozde and she came through for us!  This was on a work day and there was almost no time for her to do anything but get on her way, but she did exactly that!  I thought plans were ruined, but I am so happy that Gozde was there with almost no notice.  AND, my two boys had fun with her.  She took them on a walk and played with them at the park, and then put them to sleep.  She also took out my two dogs.  
She is also very friendly and kind, which is very important to me.  I had a wonderful night all because of Gozde!  Thank you so much!

Not enough praise can be given to Gozde and the care she provided for my son. We've gone through multiple nannies over the years with our children, and Gozde shines the brightest. To begin, Gozde has always acted in a professional manner. She was always punctual and listened to all our special instructions. She maintained complete reports and gave us all the details of our son's day, which was just wonderful! However, where Gozde really stood out was the individualized attention she gave our son. She immediately bonded with him and understood his fun and expressive personality. She found great activities to keep him learning and engaged. A couple examples are walking to the local library, finding story times and attending them as well as reading to him in the many different languages she knows! He grew so much under her care. There was hardly ever a day when we picked him where he wasn't smiling and happy. If I had an extra thumb, I'd give her more than two thumbs up!

My wife and I were in need of a babysitter on short notice since our other babysitter cancelled on us at the last minute. Gozde was quick to get in touch with us and we were very happy with her. My kids said she was a great sitter and we would love to have her again. This was our first time using Care.com and she put our mind at ease. Thanks Gozde, great job!

Despite the fact that it was such a short notice (just one day before I desperately needed a babysitter), she came on time and babysat my son. My son had a great time with Gozde. She even voluntarily took a walk with my 14 year old dog when they went to the park. My son kept asking when Gozde would come back. Although we had Gozde only for two mornings, I believe she will be a responsible, caring, and energetic babysitter for any ages.

I hired her for 8PM. She came at 7:56PM, sent a text message asking how to get in, which I didn't see until 8:04PM. I called at that time and she had left. Ruined my plans because she didn't think of calling instead of texting.

Gozde babysat for us over 30 times. My kids and my family love her and we miss her dearly. You would be lucky in having Gozde as your nanny or babysitter.

I met Gozde through Care.com, and I feel blessed that we did. She started watching our son since he was 3 months old. She has experience with babies, and you can tell she knows what she is doing.  She is a great listener in terms of managing his schedule and feedings, and that comforted me as a Mom. She used to take him to the park, read to him and played blocks with him. She always came to our place in a great, very calm mood and sent us text updates through the time she sat for him. We were new in the area and did not have many friends, and all our family was living out of state at the time. Gozde was actually the first person we ever left our son with! It was hard the first time and I tried not to let it show. We actually interviewed 4 people total, and I knew from the moment, I met her that she was special. She is trustworthy, kind, friendly, incredibly warm and endearing.

Gozde has sat for me in the past and was great with my son. She arrived on time, was friendly, enthusiastic and dependable. I would highly recommend her!!

Gozde has been watching our little girl full time since October (she was 4 months when Gozde started watching her) we are unfortunately moving out of state in June so we will no longer be using her, I am sad I wish we could take her with us.  She does a great job with our little girl I can tell because our little girl is always very excited when she sees Gozde come to our house.   She's very reliable and has never called in sick in the last 8 months that I have used her.  She's available on a short notice, we have also used her so we could have a date night and I trust her with both my kids.  I don't think there are enough words to express what a wonderful babysitter Gozde is and we will truly miss her.
