Hello there! I majored in Child development in college and since graduating 11 years ago have had kids in my daily life ever since. I’ve loved teaching in toddler, two’s and many preschool classes over the years, I believe I learn as much from each age group as they learn from me. My true passion is discovering the interests of individual kids which is what I love about babysitting. I have nieces and enjoy taking to them to the playground and parks to ride bikes and scooters. We also enjoy exploring new eateries together. I’m a native San Franciscan so I love exploring the city with kids when possible. I also enjoy singing, doing indoor games and activities, art projects, etc whatever the child feels like that day!

I’m Gabi and am currently an Associate Teacher for a 2nd grade class. Previously, I worked younger grades as well. I am CPR and First Aid certified. Additionally, I have experience babysitting kids as young as infants and toddlers to older children. I would love to connect with families. I understand that trust is a major factor and key role so I take my position very seriously. I love having silly and goofy moments with kids playing but also love to instill in them responsibility and good decision making. I would love to connect with you and can provide a reference if needed. I have always had a love for helping children from a young age. As a teacher, I have loved getting to know my students and creating bonds with them. I'm looking forward to connecting with families in which I can add my bright energy, eagerness to learn, compassion, and empathy.
