About Gwen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm Gwen-a warm, creative, and dependable caregiver with a background in education and a genuine love for working with children. I've spent several years teaching in classrooms both in the U. S. and abroad (including leading a classroom in Prague), and I bring that same thoughtful, child-centered approach into my work with families. I care deeply about creating environments where children feel safe, seen, and excited to learn. I love weaving creativity and curiosity into everyday moments-whether that's through art, storytelling, outdoor exploration, or connecting what we're learning to the world around us. I'm especially passionate about helping children build confidence, express themselves, and develop a sense of wonder. I value strong communication with families and strive to be a calm, positive, and supportive presence in your home. Looking forward to connecting!
