A little bit about me

I would love the opportunity to apply for this nannying position because caring for and supporting children is something that has always been important to me. Growing up, I had a nanny who made such a positive impact on my life, and that experience showed me how meaningful and influential a caring role model can be for a family. I am from Mobile, Alabama. I am currently a rising junior at The University of Alabama. Throughout school and college, I have stayed very involved and developed strong leadership and organizational skills. I played sports growing up, served as my class treasurer, am currently a rush chair for my sorority, and have also worked as a campaign manager for an SGA campaign team. These experiences have taught me responsibility, communication, time management, and how to create positive relationships with others. I would love to bring that same energy, dependability, and care into a nannying role and become someone both the children and parents can trust and rely on.

Hi everyone! My name is Grace and I’m a rising senior at Miami University. I’ll be home from mid-May through August 20th, and I’m looking for a full-time nanny position for the summer!
I have a lot of experience working with children, especially infants and young kids.

I also help out with things like laundry, meals for the kids, and anything else to make your life easier!
I’m very reliable, patient, and genuinely love working with kids. I also have very strong references from families I’ve worked with who would be happy to speak about my experience and work ethic.

Please feel free to message me if you or someone you know is looking 😊
