Hi, I'm Gabriella! I’ve been a caregiver for about nine years and I love working in this field. Community is needed when raising children and being a part of that is fulfilling. My goal when caregiving is to provide nurturing, attentive care to help foster creativity, individualism, and autonomy. I am screen free (unless it is part of the child’s routine) when working, except to communicate with the parents/guardians of the child. Filling the day with age appropriate activities and guided play, I am able to learn how to communicate one on one with the child, their emotions, and their interests. This allows me to build a bond where the child feels safe in my care and leaves the parents/guardians reassured. I have experience with newborn, infant, and toddler care, preparing meals for children with dietary restrictions (Type 1 Diabetes), baby led weaning, potty training, children on the autism spectrum, Read more ranging from low level needs to children that are nonverbal, and I am certified in CPR and basic first aid. I am available from 6am-5pm Monday/Tuesday/Friday 6am-2pm on Wednesday/Thursday and occasionally the weekends if planned with one to two weeks notice! When I'm not babysitting I am either spending time at home with my family or painting at my art studio! I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and would be happy to provide my driving record, a background check and references upon request.
