Hello! My name is Grace, and I’m an Early Intervention Specialist with 10 years of experience working with infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children—specifically including those with developmental delays and special needs. I’m also expecting my first baby late this fall, and I’m currently looking for short-term or part-time babysitting opportunities until then! It is important to me to create a calm, engaging environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore the world around them. My professional background and experience allows me to recognize developmental milestones, adapt to sensory and behavioral needs, and use play-based strategies that promote learning and connection. As I prepare for motherhood myself, I find so much joy in spending time with children and helping families. Whether you need occasional help, a reliable sitter for a few weeks, or extra hands before school starts, I’d love to connect!
