About Mechtilde
Experience: 5 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello, I'm Mechtilde! In my 5 plus years of caring for infants, toddlers, and children, I have provided a safe and nurturing environment, which includes early learning developmental activities, creating and implementing schedules, and preparing nutritious meals. I believe in the importance of fostering acceptance, confidence, and self-expression from a young age, and my childcare style always reflects this belief! I love to keep the children I care for active and stimulated which means plenty of trips to the park and nearby activites. I am a gentle, caring, and responsible individual who would love to be given the opportunity to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child to thrive and grow. I am currently looking for a full time job!

I cannot say enough good things about Mechtilde. She is patient and kind and truly cares about the children she cares for. She gets the kids outside as often as possible, does crafts and activities, reads to them, and makes them meals. The only reason we will no longer have Mechtilde watch the kids in fall is that our kids will be in full time school and we cannot provide her enough hours. Hopefully we can still get her for some date nights because she is incredible. I am happy to take a phone call for a reference.
