Hello! My name is Greta and I am just beginning my fourth semester in Design at the University of Cincinnati. I am also on track to have minors in Psychology and Screenwriting! Outside of school I like to paint, draw, and sculpt, and I run a very small business selling clay pieces (it's very new and definitely still experimental, but growing!). I babysat for nine years back home in Cleveland and I have been lucky enough to babysit/nanny for some other wonderful families Here in Cincinnati over the past two years as well! Between the 30+ families I have worked for, I have experience with 5 week olds through 14 year olds. I have worked as a summer nanny for six years now, and I have continued to babysit on weekdays and weekends whenever I can! I am CPR certified and actually taught first aid for three years back home Read more in Cleveland, and I am still in contact with their Fire Chief who keeps me up to date on all the safety recommendations and procedures! I love to cook/bake and I love to turn it into a kid-friendly activity, I tutored throughout high school so I'm happy to help with homework, and I grew up playing sports and spending most of my time outdoors so I'm very comfortable on that front as well! I have a car and am willing to commute to wherever needed and transport children whenever necessary. Through the years I have worked for families with dogs, cats, lizards, Guinea pigs, gerbils, hamsters, snakes, hermit crabs, turtles, birds, and fish. I have two cats back home in Cleveland and one little kitten who lives with me here in Cincinnati :) I grew up going to a Montessori school so my mindset when working with children is to facilitate learning and independence in every possible situation. Communication is key both between parents and caregivers in a professional sense, and between caregivers and children in the sense that we are all able to express feelings, needs, and reasoning through words. I also grew up in a no-screens during the week household so I know how to come up with creative activities to entertain kids outside of a tv or tablet! I do enjoy the occasional movie night or video game sesh too :) My dad is a graphic designer so art has always been a part of my life, from finger-painting to sculpting with clay and play dough to coming up with creative ways to combine a myriad of different materials. Arts and crafts with kids is especially enjoyable because of their wide range of imaginative interpretations!

Greta is absolutely sensational. This remarkably mature, professional, bright, and driven young woman is a treasure, and I'm so thankful she came into our lives. Greta was our nanny over the course of this summer and came every day, always punctual and prepared with a whole host of activities. Her energy and creativity is amazing and our 3 girls adore her. You and your family would be lucky to book her, so reach out without hesitation. I look forward to seeing and working with her more whenever possible.
