A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Gabrielle “Gabbi” Waites, and I’m a 20-year-old student at Baylor University majoring in Political Science with a minor in Sociology. I currently hold both my High School Diploma and Associate Degree, and I’m expected to graduate from Baylor in December 2026.

I absolutely love working with children because I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where kids can learn, grow, and be themselves. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning creative activities, playing games, or simply being a dependable and caring role model, I always strive to make every child feel supported and valued.

I’m energetic, patient, responsible, and passionate about education and childcare. I believe every child deserves someone who can both care for them and encourage their confidence, creativity, and curiosity. Families can count on me to be reliable, positive, and attentive while making sure their children have fun along the way!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, valued, and encouraged to grow. I believe a nanny should not only provide care, but also build trust with both the children and their family while helping children learn, explore, and develop confidence in themselves.

I strive to be patient, dependable, attentive, and positive in every childcare setting. Whether it’s helping with daily routines, educational activities, emotional support, or simply making children smile and feel cared for, I believe the role of a nanny is to make a meaningful and lasting positive impact in a child’s life.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience working closely with children with special needs through my role as a CBI Teacher, where I provided individualized educational support, tutoring, and daily assistance based on each child’s unique learning and developmental needs. I helped create a patient, positive, and supportive environment that encouraged confidence, communication, independence, and social growth.

Through this experience, I developed strong skills in patience, adaptability, communication, and understanding different learning styles and behavioral needs. I am passionate about making every child feel safe, included, supported, and encouraged to succeed at their own pace.
