Experience: 10 yrs
As a former pediatric nurse (22 years of experience) I have a great ease and natural rapport with children. Especially those with any special needs. I meet them at their level with respect, kindness and imagination while also being a leader and adhering to what each parents' sets of values are. I'm highly passionate about child development and their needs both physically, mentally and emotionally. I'm artistic and very well read and enjoy crafts and activities that expand a child's horizon. I truly love what I do and proudly more than average. I am a very happy, honest, punctual, imaginative and loyal person. I also believe and practice having healthy boundaries and discretion while working with a family. I look forward to meeting you and yours! Gretchen "I totally recommend Gretchen W. from Care. com.
