Lifeguard, babysitter, youth minister, professional nanny, and now mother, Greta invests her heart and values in every relationship she shares. While working as a nanny for young triplet boys, Greta began meeting more and more nannies during their adventures around Cincinnati. Seeing a common desire to connect, she started a community for nannies. CincyNanny was founded in September of 2009. Greta’s entrepreneurial drive, and high standards for care have led her to be a national leader in the professional nanny world.

In her free time, Greta is a life-long learner, adores travel, theology, accomplishing organization and creative projects, teaching swing dance, as well as managing projects for her church. She thinks there is nothing better than the warmth of a sleeping baby, the sound of a rainstorm, a walk on the beach with her husband, or a full-bodied cabernet.
