Hello, my name is Grace and I am looking for a family needing part time care! I have about 5 years of formal childcare experience with children of all ages. I also have some experience with certain special needs. I just graduated from MCC with an associates degree as my dream is to become a teacher. I am currently attending the University of Central Missouri (Lee's Summit campus) to get my Bachelor's degree in Early Education. I am CPR and First Aid Certified and can provide references if needed. I have my own car, do not smoke, and love animals. Please let me know if there are any questions I can answer for you!
We feel incredibly fortunate to have Grace caring for our son over the past several months. She has been with our family since he was just 6 months old, and he is now 10 months — such an important stage of growth and development — and she has been amazing every step of the way. She is extremely reliable and always punctual, which has given us great peace of mind. More than that, she is a fantastic communicator. She keeps us updated throughout the day, shares milestones and observations, and is always thoughtful and proactive in discussing anything related to our son’s development or routine. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares about him - he lights up when she arrives each day. She is patient, attentive, and engaged, and we’ve seen how comfortable and happy he is in her care. As first-time parents navigating the infant stage, having someone we completely trust has meant everything to us. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a dependable, caring, and communicative nanny.
