Hello, My name is Gracie, and I am 25 years old. I’m a florist and digital creator on Facebook. About six months ago, I had the opportunity to babysit my friend’s three children, and I discovered just how much I enjoy caring for kids. I truly feel that working with children is something I should have been doing all along! I do have experience with babysitting my autistic brother when I was a teenager as well. As a mother of two girls (ages 6 and 2), I have nearly six years of parenting experience. I practice gentle parenting, which emphasizes raising children with empathy, respect, and understanding. While I do believe in natural consequences, my approach is focused on cause and effect and positive reinforcement, rather than punitive measures. I want to make it clear that this is simply my personal parenting style, and I respect that every family has Read more their own approach and will adapt based upon your needs. Rest assured, there will be no harsh punishment in my care. I am CPR certified and take precautions to avoid any choking hazards with food and play items. I will keep you updated throughout the day about your child, as I believe that sharing every moment is important (including photos)! If you have any questions or would like more information, please feel free to reach out—I’ll be happy to get back to you as soon as I can.
