Hi! My name is Grace, and I am a third-year undergraduate student at CU studying Human Development. I have around five years of childcare experience working with children across a range of ages, including as a nanny for multiple families, particularly with infants and preschoolers. My academic background and hands-on experience have strengthened my understanding of child development, including language development, Montessori-based practices, and developmentally appropriate play. I am passionate about creating nurturing and dependable environments where children can learn, grow, and feel cared for. I also value partnering closely with parents so that the care I provide aligns with your family's needs, routines, and the way you best support and love your child. I bring patience, adaptability, strong communication, and a calm presence to my work. I am also CPR and First Aid certified and comfortable with pets.
Grace is so wonderful with our three month old son! She has babysat for us for several date nights and we are so lucky to have found her. She is always on time, very communicative, and most importantly, we feel so at ease when she is with our baby. She soothes him, walks around with him, prepares and feeds bottles, and plays with him. She’s even handled bedtime! I would not hesitate to recommend her to other families.
