Hi! I am Gabi and I work part time at a local church! I am an experienced caregiver with 5 years of experience and specialize in special needs!

Caring, reliable, and experienced nanny with a strong background in child development and early education. I hold an Associate in Science degree and am BLS (Basic Life Support) certified, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for children of all ages. With a genuine passion for helping children grow and thrive, I provide attentive care, engaging activities, and a structured yet loving atmosphere. I'm committed to supporting families with dependable, high-quality childcare tailored to their unique needs.
“she was on time, kind, and very helpful ”
I’m a kind, creative, and patient caregiver who loves engaging children in fun, hands-on activities rather than screen time. I have experience caring for kids of various ages, including helping with homework, arts & crafts, outdoor play, and light meal prep. I’m reliable, energetic, and focused on creating a safe and positive environment for children to learn and grow.
“Maddy was wonderful, professional, on time, helpful, and we look forward to working with her again.”
My name is Blanca, I am a dedicated caregiver for over 20 years working with children of all ages. As a mother of five wonderful children who are now grown and thriving in their own lives, I have gained an immense understanding of child development, patience, and the ability to connect with children. Raising my children taught me the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment, and I have carried those values into my personal caregiving career. I hold a Child Development Associate (CDA) certification, which allows me to build a strong foundation in child care practices in early childhood education. This certification, combined with my hands-on experience, has given me the tools to meet the needs of children across various developmental stages. From infants to teenagers, I have worked with children of all ages, helping them grow, learn and thrive in supportive and structured environments. In addition to my work with children, I am also experienced in providing household services. I understand how important it is to maintain an organized and clean environment for children to thrive. Whether it’s preparing healthy meals, managing schedules, or ensuring the home remains tidy, I am committed to supporting families in every way possible. My bilingual skills in English and Spanish have also been a significant asset, allowing me to communicate effectively with families from diverse backgrounds and even help children develop their bilingual abilities. Beyond my professional experience, I believe my personality traits make me an exceptional caregiver. I am patient, empathetic, and highly observant, which allows me to respond to the unique needs of each child. I am also highly dependable and proactive, always anticipating the needs of the family and ensuring tasks are completed efficiently. My warm and friendly demeanor helps children feel comfortable and safe, while my structured approach provides the guidance they need to thrive. If you’d like to learn more about how I can support your family, I would be happy to discuss further!
