About Gretchen

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have a heart for kids and creating a nurturing environment where children can grow and thrive. I am currently back in grad school. My schedule is flexible so I am happy to help with babysitting needs, after-school care, tutoring, or last-minute fill-in for a nanny or babysitter who needs a day or longer period off due to traveling, being sick, etc. I also do extensive pet sitting if that is a need!
