A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Grace, and I have nearly seven years of experience as a preschool teacher. Growing up in a large family with seven siblings, I developed a lifelong passion for working with children. In addition to my teaching experience, I have provided nanny care for my sister’s children as well as for another family earlier this year.
My core values as a caregiver are to ensure that every child feels seen, loved, and respected. I strive to create a supportive, engaging environment where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and developmentally. I am currently seeking new opportunities to support families and provide reliable, nurturing care.

"I had the pleasure of working as a co-teacher alongside Grace and I can honestly say she is one of the best teachers I’ve worked with. She is patient, organized, and truly cares about each child’s growth and well-being. She creates a positive, supportive classroom environment where children feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. She works extremely well with others, communicates clearly, and always shows up prepared and dependable. She has a natural ability to connect with children of different personalities and learning needs, and she handles challenges calmly and thoughtfully. Any family would be very lucky to have her."

"I am pleased to provide a reference for Grace who cared for my daughter for approximately one year. During that time, she consistently demonstrated reliability, warmth, and genuine care. She created a safe, positive environment, handled daily routines smoothly, and was always attentive to my daughter’s needs. Picnics at the park, arts and crafts, going out to eat and baking were not uncommon🙂 She was punctual, communicative, and flexible whenever our schedule changed. Always cleaned up before she left too. My daughter enjoyed her time with her, and I always felt confident and fully trusted leaving her in her care. She still asks about grace to this day! I highly recommend Grace to any family looking for a responsible and compassionate caregiver."

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

My life has always revolved around caring for children. I grew up in a large family with eight siblings—many of whom now have children of their own—so being around little ones has always been a natural part of my daily life. Professionally, I have worked as a preschool teacher since 2019 and continue to love supporting children in their early learning journey.
I’ve also had experience nannying, including caring for one of my students after school for about a year, which I truly enjoyed. That one-on-one connection helped me realize how meaningful individualized care can be, and it’s inspired me to seek more opportunities to work closely with children and their families.
Creating a safe, nurturing environment is at the heart of my caregiving approach. I believe consistency, clear communication, and empathy—especially during challenging moments—are essential to healthy child development. I am CPR and First Aid certified and hold a certificate in Early Childhood Education.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging children in activities that support both learning and creativity. Some of my favorites include reading together, doing simple crafts, outdoor play, sensory activities, and exploring imaginative play. I also love creating opportunities for hands-on learning, whether that’s cooking simple recipes, doing nature walks, or setting up age-appropriate educational games. My goal is always to keep children engaged, curious, and having fun.

The most important part about being a nanny...

In my opinion, the most important part of being a nanny is building a loving, trusting relationship with the child and their family. When a child feels safe and supported, they are able to grow, explore, and learn with confidence. I also believe it’s essential to guide children in navigating everyday challenges in a respectful, responsible, and safe way, as these early lessons lay the foundation for long-term success.

My experience with special needs children...

I have had a variety of children on the spectrum in my classroom throughout the years.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite nanny moments was taking the child I cared for out for ice cream and seeing how special and valued it made her feel. I also loved creating our own little “routine song” together, which became a meaningful and fun part of our daily schedule.
