Hello families, My name is Gwendolen. I am a very loving and caring person with a passion for childcare. I am a proud mother of three grown children. I am also a grandmother of a 2-year-old. Outside of my own children, I have worked with families with children of all ages. I have worked with newborn twins, toddlers and school aged children. My years of experience in childcare has allowed me to be patient, resilient and energetic which has resulted in a stable and comforting environment for the children I care for. I also have an open communication with parents to keep them informed of the day. Along with childcare duties, I also have experience with household duties. My duties would include cooking, cleaning and laundry for the children. As a nanny, I love to plan fun and engaging activities for the children to do throughout the day. I am an enthusiastic and responsible person looking forward to meeting you and your amazing children. Hope to hear from you soon.

Gwen has been our recurring weekend nanny for the past few months, and she has been nothing short of amazing in caring for our 1-year-old son, who has speech and feeding delays. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she had a genuine love for children and a deep understanding of their unique needs. Her patience and gentle demeanor quickly put our son at ease, and he formed a strong bond with her almost immediately. One of the most impressive aspects of Gwen's care is her dedication to supporting our son's developmental challenges. She has been proactive in implementing the speech and feeding strategies recommended by his therapists, always following through with the exercises and activities with enthusiasm and consistency. Her ability to turn these therapeutic routines into fun and engaging playtime has been remarkable. Our son has shown noticeable progress in his speech and feeding skills, which we attribute in large part to her attentive and personalized approach. In addition to her professional skills, Gwen has been incredibly reliable and communicative. She always arrives on time, with a warm smile and a positive attitude. She keeps us well-informed about our son's activities and progress, and her feedback has been invaluable in ensuring that we are all aligned in supporting his development. Her willingness to go above and beyond, whether it’s staying a bit later when needed or bringing thoughtful toys and books to engage our son, has truly made her an indispensable part of our family. We cannot recommend Gwen highly enough. Her exceptional care, combined with her compassionate and proactive approach to our son's needs, has provided us with peace of mind and has greatly contributed to our son’s growth and happiness. She is a rare find, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have her as part of our lives.
