Hi! I’m Gracie, and I have years of experience caring for and working with children of all ages. I have three siblings and two younger cousins who I regularly help care for, so being responsible for kids has always been a big part of my life.A huge part of my experience comes from working in children’s theater. I started teaching theater students in 2020, and for the past six years I’ve worked with children and teens ranging from ages 3 to 18. I’ve been trusted with supervising groups of students, teaching classes and rehearsals, keeping kids focused and on schedule, handling conflicts, communicating with parents, and making sure every child is accounted for and safe. Working in theater has also taught me how to stay calm and think quickly when unexpected situations come up, especially when I’m responsible for multiple children at once.I’m used to working with younger children who may need extra patience and attention, as well as older kids who need someone they can respect and feel comfortable around. I know how to have fun with kids while still setting boundaries and making sure rules and routines are followed.I’m also CPR certified, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s child very seriously. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and energetic, and I genuinely love working with kids. My goal is always to make sure children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind knowing their kids are in responsible hands.

Hi! I’m an experienced and compassionate caregiver with a strong background in childcare and healthcare. I’m a nursing student and I have babysitting experience through this app, caring for children and helping families feel comfortable knowing their little ones are in attentive and dependable hands. I also helped raise my younger siblings from the time they were newborns, which gave me hands-on experience caring for children from a young age.Professionally, I have worked at two summer camps and as an after-school counselor, where I independently supervised a group of 13 kindergarteners. I planned fun and engaging activities, assisted with homework, and followed school district safety guidelines to maintain a safe and positive environment for every child.I am CPR certified and have also worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), giving me additional experience with safety, personal care, and Activities of Daily Living. I also have experience working with autistic children as a Behavioral Technician, which has strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to adapt to each child’s individual needs.I’m also currently in my first trimester and expecting my first little one! Becoming a mom has made caring for children feel even more special to me.

I’m currently an emergency medicine resident physician, but prior to attending medical school I was a full time nanny for 3 years, I had lots of babysitting experience prior to that, and I was a gymnastics coach for kids aged 3-16. While it’s obviously not my full-time job anymore, I’ve always loved working with kids and I love to still babysit here and there!
