My name is Grace Ratica, and I'm currently a freshman at the University of Missouri. Growing up, I've always been surrounded by kids since my mom babysits. This exposure ignited my passion for working with children and inspired me to pursue a career as a nanny. I am patient, energetic, and committed to providing a nurturing and supportive environment for children to learn and grow. I'm currently a direct support professional and work with individuals that have disabilities. This background of mine as a direct support professional has honed my abilities to adapt to diverse needs and personalities, as well as to communicate effectively with both children and adults. It has instilled in me a strong sense of empathy, compassion, and patience, qualities that I believe are essential for nurturing positive relationships with children and fostering their development. Additionally, my experience in this field has taught me valuable skills in Read more problem-solving, conflict resolution, and creating structured routines – all of which are applicable to providing quality care as a nanny. I am excited to bring my unique blend of experience, enthusiasm, and dedication to enriching the lives of the children I have the privilege to care for as their nanny.
