A little bit about me
Hi! I’m a high-energy caregiver who loves combining my passion for kids, my faith, and my background in nutrition. I believe childcare is a true calling, and I aim to lead with a heart for the Lord—bringing patience, joy, and integrity into your home every day.
As a former athlete, I love staying active and getting outside with kids, but you’ll also find me in the kitchen whipping up healthy, delicious meals (I’m a pro at gluten-free cooking!). My goal is to be a positive role model for your little ones and a reliable partner for your family. I can't wait to help your kids thrive!

Hi there! My name is Grace I’m a 23 year old University of Kansas graduate with a warm, energetic, and responsible personality. I spent two years in high school nannying for a 3 year old and a 6 year old, and I’ve missed working with kids ever since. I’m currently transitioning out of a sales role and am looking for a part-time position while I explore my next career path.
I’m patient, dependable, and creative. I love planning fun adventures, helping with homework, and keeping kids engaged. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, errands, and whatever else helps make your family’s day run smoother. I’d love the chance to support your household and get to know your kids!
