A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Grace. I come from a large family (I'm one of 8 kids) and I have 1 nephew and 2 nieces. I attended South Suburban College for two years and played on their volleyball team. I've worked at a family practice doctors office in the south suburbs for the past two and a half years. During my time at the doctors office, I became quite interested in nutrition! Recently, I developed a passion for cooking. I love trying new things such as foods, activities, and crafts! I have several years of experience babysitting my younger siblings and nieces and nephews. I've nannied for a group of rambunctious kids and loved every moment of it! I cherish all the memories I've made with the children, and I can't wait to have the opportunity to make more!

A little bit about me
With a decade of childcare experience, I’ve found my passion in nurturing young minds. I began babysitting in high school and college, then taught preschool at Rainforest Learning Center, where I helped 3- to 5-year-olds achieve developmental milestones through engaging lesson plans focused on motor skills and social-emotional growth. Transitioning to nannying for the past seven years, I’ve gained valuable experience with families, including caring for multiples and premature babies. Holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Art Institute, I love incorporating arts and crafts into my care. I’m energetic and fun, using redirectional discipline to create safe learning environments. With a solid understanding of developmental milestones from birth to age five, I’m excited to explore enrichment activities in Chicago and can’t wait to find my next wonderful family to support!
