About Gabriella

Experience: 10 yrs

I enjoy creating wonderful memories with the children and families I am lucky to care for. Making sure a child is paid attention to and feels fully cared for and loved is very important to me. I really value understanding child psychology, early childhood education, and childhood development and spend my free time studying these areas of knowledge. In my undergraduate studies, I spent time studying anthropology and social work because understanding people is something I'm deeply passionate about, particularly youth. I've been working as a childcare provider for over 10 years, for many families, and have committed to families for years at a time. I tend to work under a "no screens" policy because I find that my time on the clock is best spent nurturing your child with my full attention. Typically I like to share my passion for the outdoors and nature with children, playing games and activating their imaginations. I am fluent in three languages and am happy to share this when working.

I would highly recommend Gabby. From February of 2018 we employed her to care for our two young children, ages twenty- and four-months old. We entrusted Gabby to care for our children in our remote, wooded home where there were many hazards such as multi-level stairs, un-level hiking grounds, a creek, and a one-way winding road. She easily adapted to our philosophy of parenting and lead outdoor exploration when weather permitted. During her nine months of employment, I was able to directly observe her with my children. When caring for our infant she remained calm and patient and was able to successfully identify ways to keep our toddler entertained. Not only was she capable of performing standard care (e.g., feeding, diaper changes), she enhanced their learning environment through interactive play and reading. She created an engaging way for our eldest to attend for longer periods of time. When possible, she would attend to housekeeping and keep our home picked up after a day of play.
