About Gracie

I've been working with kids ever since I became a big sister at the age of five. I know that my age of 20 years old can seem discouraging, but I am wise well beyond my years. I spent 10 years in the foster care system, and alongside raising my blood siblings, I cared for countless children of all ages growing up. My heart was made for caring for children, and I spent the past year assisting with children aging from infants to pre-k students in a daycare. I left that daycare due to no opportunity to grow in the position, but I do truly believe it's my calling to help and nurture children. I am specialized in younger kids, but really do not mind older children. Someday, I'd like to become a children's life specialist at CHOA. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and have Early Childhood Development knowledge under my belt from past courses. I love to read, write, draw and get outside! I'd love to join as a helping hand in your family!!
