About Gracia
Experience: 6 yrs
I'd describe my personality as Affectionate, Cheerful and Communicative. I like working with kids because I love that they're curious, fun, and there's so much to learn from them. I also enjoy contributing to their growth and well-being. I'm looking for a job that allows me to have a good communication and a positive relationship with the parents, I value a job where I feel trusted and where my work is appreciated. I started working with kids when I was 17 And In 2024, I decided to come to the United States as an au pair, where I spent a year, and now I'm working taking care of an 8-month-old baby. In my spare time, I like spend time in nature, running, going to the gym, and swimming in the ocean whenever I can. I'm a very outdoorsy person. One thing you should know about me is that I truly enjoy spending time with kids and supporting their growth. My skills include healthy meal preparation, outdoor activities and sports, infant care (feeding, diapering, naps).
Most recent review
Gracia is wonderful with our 8-month old baby, and our 3-year-old. Baby has a lot of separation anxiety, and Gracia has been very patient and helps distract her with singing, playing and reading books to keep her happy and having fun. She takes baby on walks to the park and library story hour, makes healthy lunches and is mindful about feeding appropriately for a new-to-solids baby. She is always cheerful, prompt, and helpful cleaning up baby’s dishes and toys, or folding and putting away baby clothes while baby sleeps. Now when Gracia arrives baby reaches for her to hold her! My 3-year old is usually in school, but Gracia helps us help her get ready in the morning, sometimes braids her hair or helps her eat breakfast. After school she always asks “do I get to see Gracia today?” We are so grateful we found Gracia for our family!
