Experience: 10 yrs
With more than 20 years of experience caring for children of all ages, and raising four children of my own, I offer a safe, engaging, and supportive environment. My degree in Child and Adolescent Development and elementary teaching credential provide a strong foundation for my care. I have current First Aid and CPR Training. I provide loving care and excellent communication. If you need a sitter on evenings or weekends, I am available, trustworthy, patient, caring, and fun! I do not smoke, drink, or get high. I have a clean DMV record and DOJ background check. I am reliable, responsible, respectful. You can count on me to be a five-star sitter!
My wife and I found Gretchen through Care as a nanny for our 4.5 month old son. As first time parents we approached finding a nanny with caution, but Gretchen made our decision easy. She is kind, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and flexible. Our son took to her nearly immediately! She also provides educational content like songs and reading for our baby’s age. If you are looking for someone to care for your baby with tenderness, we highly recommend considering Gretchen!
