A little bit about me

I'm Grace! I am a recent FLC graduate that loves reading, cooking, coffee, and art. I have degrees in political science and anthropology and am staying in Durango until I leave for graduate school next summer. I've been a nanny since high school and worked in a children's nursery for three years. I'm originally from Texas, but love the Colorado weather! I am a part time bank teller, but would love to fill the extra time by spending it with kids.

More About Me

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

I worked for three years in a church nursery taking care of children ages 0-5, but simultaneously volunteered with the children's organization, leading activities and managing children aged 5-11.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love arts and crafts, story time, going for walks, sitting by the river, singing songs, playing make believe, and making snacks together.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, getting to know the individual child and their needs is essential, especially when taking care of multiple children. Encouraging children to communicate their needs respectfully and developing their sense of self management is a form of growth I love to see.

My experience with special needs children...

I used to nanny for a family with four children, the eldest of which had autism that manifested in frequent outbursts and sensory overwhelm. I took care of this family since there were only two children up until I left for undergrad, which was about two and a half years.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Every nanny position I have held has had its own ups and downs, but children are always sweet and silly. My favorite moment as a nanny was when I took my kids to ball pit and they stuffed their clothes as full as they could with the colorful balls then came hobbling as fast as they could to show me. It made me laugh very hard. But I also enjoy the small moments where my kids have burst into song or spilled a bunch of water and all I could do was laugh.
