About Gretchen

Nurturing children comes naturally to me, and I have six years of experience caring for little ones. I find immense joy in fostering their growth and development, and I'm motivated to make a positive impact on their lives while supporting families. My approach is patient and calm, and I strive to be friendly and approachable. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children at a time, providing services such as cooking, light housekeeping, travel assistance, and swimming supervision. I have some college experience, with early childhood development coursework, and I'm trained in First Aid and CPR. I follow parents' lead regarding household rules and preferred communication methods, offering verbal updates at pickup or via text/phone calls. I enjoy playing outdoor sports and educational games. I am eager to connect with a family where I can share my passion for childcare and create a fun, safe, and supportive environment.
