Hi, I’m Gabriela. I didn’t always plan on running a nanny agency in the Rockies. I actually started out in medical school back home in Buenos Aires, but life has a funny way of shifting your perspective. I realized my real passion was not in a clinic; it was the rewarding experience of being outdoors on adventures with kids, where I can watch them grow and provide the dedicated support their parents rely on. When I moved to the U.S. and started nannying in Aspen, what began as "just a job" became my life’s work. I spent years traveling with families and becoming a fixture in their kids' lives. Eventually, I realized I couldn’t be in ten places at once, so I started Snowmass Nannies to bridge that gap.
I don’t just source candidates; I personally vet every nanny to make sure they share the same standards I held myself to for years. That means having the intuition to know when a child needs a quiet book or an outdoor adventure, the reliability to be the person a parent never has to worry about, and the kindness that kids actually remember.
When I’m not matching nannies with families, I’m usually writing. My blog, The Art of Care, and my columns in the Aspen Times are where I process the quiet, meaningful moments that happen during a day of caregiving. Whether you’re here for a week of skiing or you live in the valley year-round, my goal is simple: to give you total peace of mind knowing your kids are safe, happy, and having just as much fun as you are.
Thank you for getting to know a little about me. I would love to connect and support your family!

As a nanny, I know firsthand that the kitchen table can sometimes feel like a battlefield of negotiations and hidden veggies. I poured my heart into this piece, sharing my absolute favorite ways to turn mealtime stress into a fun, peaceful bonding experience for both kids and caregivers.
Be and accomplice
Childcare is often described as supervision, structure, and safety. And while those things matter deeply, they are not the whole story. The moments that shape children most often happen inside laughter, play, and shared problem solving. This is a story about stepping into a child’s world, building trust through connection, and sometimes choosing to be an accomplice.
