About Gretchen

Experience: 8 yrs

Nurturing children and fostering their development is truly my passion! As a middle school ELA teacher, I'm eager to provide childcare two days a week during the summer. I hold a graduate degree in teaching and bring eight years of experience caring for children aged 0-11, as I filled my high school and college years with both babysitting and nannying. My friendly and approachable personality helps me connect with children, and I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and schedules as a strongly believe children thrive with routine. I enjoy being outdoors, playing board games, and focusing on activities that revolve around education! I always follow parents' preferred communication method and am comfortable caring for up to two children, have a car, and am comfortable with pets. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I hope to bring my energy and experience to your family!
