About Gretchen

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am from the Philippines and started taking care of children with my smaller brothers and cousins at an early age. I am a college graduate, I am currently certified in Newborn Care Specialist (Baby Nurse), Baby Massage, and CPR AED, CPR training for Infant, Child, and Adult. I can also assist parents as a virtual assistant. With the dangers of viruses arising, I take extra precautions to keep your angel safe, I'm vaccinated and I adhere to wearing proper PPE. I am a fun-loving, busy individual, I believe in raising children with a loving, firm, disciplined approach one that insists on good manners from all family members. It is very important to work with parents for a nurturing environment in their home especially in these unprecedented times. I have had several clients on the water-front on both the Manhattan and Jersey City sides. I currently Speak 5 languages. English, Spanish, Tagalog, and 2 other dialects. Your child will feel Safe and Loved all day long.

Gretchen did overnights with us until the baby slept through the night. She truly is the best! She is energetic, yet gentle and our 8 month old absolutely adored her! Every morning we woke up to the most joyful baby playing and laughing. She is very caring, tidy and dependable. We would love to work with Gretchen again!
