Hi my name is Grace. I’m 19 years old and I just recently graduated from high school and will be starting college in the fall for dental assisting. I have been watching children since my first CPR and babysitting certification program, that I took when I was 12 years old. I enjoy babysitting and really enjoy watching the kids grow and learn and see the excitement when they’ve mastered a new project or put a puzzle together. In addition to sitting, I am also able to help with homework, light chores, dinner prep and have my license if you require drop off or pick ups. I look forward to meeting you and your family soon!

Hi! I’m Katie, I’m 27 years old, and I bring over a decade of childcare experience, including 4 years as a full-time nanny and 10+ years of babysitting. Alongside that, I’ve worked as a Lead Medical Assistant for the past 4 years, which has given me extensive experience caring for children with medical needs. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve had hands-on experience administering injections, managing glucose levels, and supporting kids with conditions like Type 1 Diabetes and Celiac Disease, including careful attention to dietary restrictions and daily care routines. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can truly thrive, whether that means encouraging their creative side through play, helping with routines, or simply being a reliable and comforting presence. I believe in fostering independence, imagination, and emotional growth while giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are in capable and compassionate hands.
