A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Grace and I am a 34-year-old speech-language pathologist transitioning into full-time childcare.

Through both my SLP work and previous nannying and babysitting roles, I’ve gained several years of experience supporting children of all ages and abilities. In my free time, I enjoy being with my family (aunt life is my favorite!), hiking with my dog, swimming, reading, and experimenting in the kitchen.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Nura. I am currently a sophomore at Barnard College, a Seattle Academy alum, and a Rainier Scholar, studying English. I plan to go into publishing or public health in the future. I’m excited to work as a nanny because I already have experience working with children—from teaching them to creating curricula focused on youth literacy. I’m also looking forward to returning to Seattle for winter break and connecting with the kids about growing up here; it was truly one of my favorite experiences.
