About Gracie

Experience: 7 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'm Gracie, but my toddlers call me "Gigi". I'm 21, though I was approached by my first nanny family at 12. Since I was going to be trusted with the safety of two little lives, at that time I received CPR/First Aid training (which is outdated; utilized throughout work). I have since expanded my experience in childcare which includes care down to 8 weeks old, cloth/disposable diapers, food allergies, skin conditions, meal prep, child transport, etc. My care is geared toward hands-on experiences, which includes community involvement (parks, markets, festivals, book sales, community events, etc.). I find these to be effective tools to teach kids how to navigate/fit into the world in a kind, gentle, and eventually self-sufficient manner through connection, intention, and kindness. Should you choose to hire me, a fair warning: YOUR CHILD MAY NOT COME HOME CLEAN! They will be in school for years; not digging up bugs in a park. I give kids a secure space to expand their imagination.

Gracie was punctual and friendly. She did a wonderful job with our toddler and infant. The toddler took to her easily and said she read him a lot of books (which he loves). She left us great notes to communicate how the night went, and we would happily hire her again. Thanks, Gracie!
