Hello! I am an elementary school teacher, looking to transition from the classroom. I love spending time with kids and am passionate about our role in training children to become independent and adaptable adults. I have a Master of Arts in Teaching and a professional teaching certificate (Childhood Grades 1-6). Beyond my teaching experience, I am an avid reader, mostly sci-fi and tech, I'm a yoga practitioner, and community volunteer.

“I’m a forty-one year old dedicated caregiver with extensive experience nurturing children and serving my community. Through my six years in home care and work as a recruiter for a home care agency, I’ve developed strong caregiving skills and understand what it means to truly care for others. I currently work for WorkForce1, a job placement center for New York City, where I help people find employment and build better lives. My passion for helping youth led me to start my own nonprofit focused on supporting kids and teens in my neighborhood. I’m also an active member of Uptown United, a community organization dedicated to giving back to our elderly, youth, and anyone in need through annual events and ongoing support. I regularly care for neighborhood teenagers and am excited to extend that care to younger children as well. My approach to childcare comes from a place of genuine love and community service. I believe in creating safe, nurturing environments where children can thrive, and I bring both professional caregiving experience and a heart for service to every family I work with

Hello Families! I’m Grace, a certified NYS teacher with many years of experience caring for children from infancy through elementary school. I’ve nannied for babies from 3 months to 9 months, as well as toddlers from 2-3 years, and twins from ages 3-6! I’ve supported families as both a live-in and live-out nanny, helping with feeding, routines, developmental play, and creating a calm, nurturing environment. I also have teaching and tutoring experience in literacy, writing, and homework support, specifically with middle school aged children. I’m dependable, organized, and always happy to help with housekeeping, cleaning, cooking, driving, and caring for pets to keep your home running smoothly. I truly love supporting children and partnering with families.

I truly enjoy providing care for people and making others feel safe, comfortable, and supported. I have over 15 years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant and over 5 years of experience as a nanny. Caring for others has always come naturally to me, whether I am helping children with their daily routines, creating fun activities, preparing meals, assisting with homework, or simply being a calm and patient presence. I am nurturing, dependable, organized, and attentive to each family’s needs. My healthcare background has also taught me how to stay calm, responsible, and focused on safety. I speak English, Haitian Creole, and understand basic French.

I have experience babysitting for multiple families, caring for children of different ages, and supporting their daily routines in a safe, fun, and structured environment. I'm responsible, patient, and energetic, and I enjoy creating activities that keep kids engaged while also making sure they feel supported and comfortable! In addition to childcare, I was a peer mentor in college, where I helped guide and support fellow students academically and personally. That experience strengthened my communication skills and the ability to connect with others in a supportive and understanding way. I have a BFA in Musical Theater as well, so anything music or performing arts related I love to share/teach children. I also have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and making sure they are well looked after. Overall, I'm dependable, caring, and I take pride in being someone families can trust!
