Meet Gemma
- Comfortable with pets
Hi! My name is Gemma, and I’m a sophomore at Dartmouth College with over eight years of childcare experience. In addition to babysitting, I’ve taught theater to elementary-aged kids and worked on youth-focused community programs, allowing me to create fun, educational, and engaging activities tailored to each child’s needs. I’m currently interning on Capitol Hill and am available for babysitting after my 9-5 on weekdays, on Tuesdays and Thursdays when the House is in session, and all day on weekends. I’m particularly passionate about helping kids grow intellectually and with their homework, as I value education deeply. I also enjoy incorporating crafts like painting, coloring, or baking into my time with kids. Growing up in Vermont, I developed a love for the outdoors and enjoy hiking, playing basketball, and field hockey—sports I played in high school. I also have a cat and dog at home, so I’m happy to help Read more with your furry friends too! I believe in truly listening to children, showing empathy, and fostering their growth in a supportive and fun environment. I’d love the opportunity to help your family! Please feel free to contact me for references or to set up a call.
