About Grace
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I'm a bilingual career nanny of over 15 years. Currently going to school to become a full spectrum doula. In my many years of childcare, I've gained a lot of experience with providing personal care to families with children of all ages. My goal as a provider is to create an atmosphere where parents can feel confident and secure that their child is in the best hands and children are able to feel safe, loved and nurtured in an environment that best suits their needs and personalities. I'm a hands-on educator and enjoy bringing a variety of elements into the learning environment. I feel that my years of experience have taught me a lot about what it really means to be trusted and invited into a family's life and home. I strive to always honor that by being open, understanding and creating a healthy space for communication.

I cannot recommend Grace highly enough! She has been an absolute blessing to our family for the last year, providing exceptional care for our son from before he was walking to now when he is starting to talk. Grace's experience truly shines through in every aspect of her care, and we feel so lucky to have her as our nanny. From the start, Grace has been incredibly professional, always punctual, responsible, and organized. She takes such initiative in everything she does, from meal prep to creating engaging and educational activities for our son. Whether it's helping him explore new developmental milestones or taking him on stimulating adventures, Grace has consistently gone above and beyond. She's taken him on bus rides, to OMSI (the science museum), and frequent park outings, providing him with rich experiences that help him grow. What truly sets Grace apart is her emotional intelligence. She understands my son’s needs so well and knows exactly how to nurture him through every phase of development. Her ability to connect with him, as well as with other kids in the neighborhood, has been a wonderful asset. I love seeing her network with other families and bring together kids of similar ages for fun and learning. Grace has even been amazing with my older child, sometimes coming up with creative activities and art projects that keep both of them entertained and learning. We trust Grace completely. She’s responsible for driving our son when needed, and we feel secure knowing that he’s in her care. She approaches each day with positivity, even when things get tough, and we truly appreciate her dedication. Grace brings her best self to work every single day, and it shows in the loving and supportive environment she’s created for our son. Grace is an incredible human being, and I am forever grateful for the role she has played in our family’s life. She is reliable, nurturing, and truly cares about the well-being of the children she cares for. If you are looking for a nanny who will not only meet but exceed your expectations, Grace is the one!
