Hi there! My name is Grace and I am reliable, trustworthy, educated, creative, patient and fun. My job experiences prove that I can be entrusted to take care of your children. I have worked as a Preschool Teacher for about 7 years, but recently began a job at a large theatre in Chicago planning educational arts programs for kids throughout the year. I am hoping to find supplemental babysitting employment in the Edgewater area. I have a vast background working with children including nannying for various families in the Chicagoland area, being a counselor at various day and away camps, and of course teaching. I am also CPR/AED certified. I hope to hear from you!

Grace has been with our family for almost a year now, she has consistently exceeded my expectations during this time. It is obvious how much she cares about my girls (ages 3 and 6) and they ADORE her. She is bright, trustworthy, reliable and has excellent judgment. She is better at sticking to my girls' daily/sleep schedule than I am! She never needs guidance about what to do with them as she's full of great ideas for projects, games and activities that are tailored to their interests. She also cares for our dog who's been having health problems and Grace is so sweet with her, too. Among numerous other tasks, it is a given for Grace that the kitchen be kept tidy and the kids' laundry folded and put away. I am a stay-at-home mom and she is comfortable being here when I am home as well as when I'm not home. Any family would be lucky to have her!
