A little bit about me

Hiya families!
I’m Gabriel, but you can call me Gab. I’ve been a nanny off and on for about 7 years now aside from my part time baking/cakery business from home. I’m certified in CPR/ First Aid. I’m a college graduate of culinary arts and minor in Early Childhood Education.
I belong to a big Italian family & was raised with tons of pets.
I’m a huge nerd and a outdoorsy one at that, from dinosaurs to princesses I’ve done it all.
I go out of my way for my children & treat them like they are my own. I’m protective & assertive, I provide disciplinary actions when necessary and by approval of guardians. I’m a skilled cook & I love to clean. My services include childcare, meal prep, light housekeeping, outdoor playtime’s & educational learning.

"SHE IS THE BEST!! If I could give her more than a 5 star ⭐️ rating I would! She exceeded every expectation. If you’re anything like me I don’t like strangers in my house, I get very weird with new people and especially a stranger watching my babies, but with Gabriel this wasn’t the case. After months of searching she found me in Nannylane & if it couldn’t have been any better timing! She’s incredible. From start to finish she was easily assertive she had to only be shown ONE TIME and she had it down. Between her exceptional work ethic, and reliability she became a great friend of mine and a big sister to my littles. I’ve never seen someone better at multi-tasking light housekeeping or food preparation was off the charts. My only wish is we could’ve taken her to Dubai with us. She’s still a dear friend of mine, and will always treasure her as part of our family. It doesn’t get BETTER than Gabs ❤️"

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have been a nanny for several families off and on for about 7 years.

Sometimes I volunteer at schools to do demos on fun culinary ways for kiddos to learn creatively in the kitchen and safely

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

House (playing family roles)
Dinosaur mania (game I made up)
Dress up
Cupcake making
Snack time fun
Princesses
Nature hikes
Building castles, boats, anything out of cardboard/ paper etc
Movie Dates (dress up themed)
Attack on Titan (building forts and throwing pillows )
Loads more!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Happiness & Love is a huge value for me. If a child is unhappy I do my best to sort out the problems with them in only ways they can understand. Most rewarding job & also one of the most stressful so staying balanced is key. Understanding to not get overwhelmed and entrusting the nanny wholeheartedly, knowing your babies are in great hands.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Some of my cherish memories with my pass children were creating fun foodie things allowing children to play with their food in a fun education and creative ways.
I love getting children involved in nature and everyday things so they’re not always reliant on parents and I prep them for being more self sufficient :)

The hardest part of nannying is becoming part of the Familia & Having to leave them eventually. It’s never forever but the small time I have with my kiddos I greatly make a positive impact.
