Hello there, welcome to my bio! My name is Grace, I’m 28 (29 in May 2024) and have been working with children the past 15 years. I love traveling, dancing and photography! Another thing I enjoy is really good food! One thing I love about nannying is that you can get to know someone’s child one on one - as opposed to a teacher who has multiple students. A child’s development in the home is so valuable and important and being a part of that critical role is a passion of mine. Experience with all ages - 6 weeks old to high school age children. I’ve even worked with twins and children with developmental/learning differences. My niche is children with high functioning autism. I have also worked with children who struggle with emotions, anger and other mental health differences. Additional responsibilities have included: Preparing snacks / meals Washing and folding Read more laundry Pet care - walks, food, medication, play time Driving children to activities / school Organization - pantry, closets, fridge, bedrooms etc. Grocery Shopping Odd jobs and errands Payment: Cash Check Venmo Apple Pay

Grace was my twin toddlers (under 2) first babysitter- outside of family- and made my girls clearly feel so loved and comfortable. She was great with communication and attentive to the girls, checking in regarding snack and etcetera. I was slightly anxious about leaving the girls with a "stranger" for the first time, but felt perfectly at ease by the time I headed out for my appointment. She was great! And hands on, loving and fun with my girls.
