About Gail

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello, I am a single middle-aged female whose only dependents are my 3 dogs. I have worked with or around children my entire life. I majored in Education at BGSU, studied Early Childhood Education at Sinclair, and worked then, for five years, as a preschool teacher. I have had many years of experience in office environments. Then, in 2007, I became the Nanny for my last office Boss and since then, I have helped to raise six families, total of 20 fine young people. I have been CPR trained and certified several times, but my certifications have expired. I am happy to facilitate the household by running errands, grocery shopping, doing the laundry, meal prep, pet care, any number of ways... I love to read books, explore creativity with art and music, and foster independent play. I am experienced, educated and have excellent references.

Having Gail as our nanny for the past three years has been nothing short of a blessing. She’s firm but fair in her approach, ensuring our children—aged 7, 5, and 2—learn respect, discipline, and kindness. Gail’s reliability is unmatched; come rain or shine, she's been a rock for our family, always there when we need her most. We do not have family nearby, so when we needed to do an ER trip in the middle of the night, she was at our house quickly to stay with the kids. Her ability to engage with each child at their level, nurturing their individual strengths while guiding them through challenges, has been remarkable. She brings out the creativity in our oldest, she encourages our middle child in his sports, and our youngest is so attached to her always excited when “Miss Gail is coming over.” Whether it’s helping fold the laundry, crafting engaging activities, or managing the occasional sibling squabble, she handles it all with grace and expertise. Her presence has brought peace of mind and stability, allowing our children to thrive in a loving, structured environment. We are sad to let her go, but because of changing job situations, we are not able to keep her on. Truly, she’s not just a nanny to us; Gail is an integral part of our family's journey, and we're deeply grateful for her dedication.
