Hi, My name is Grace! I am a responsible and dependable college student currently pursuing my BFA. Alongside my studies, I work part-time as a painting instructor, teaching art classes to both children and adults. I love helping kids learn and express their creativity.I also worked as a teacher's assistant helping kids with their homework and creating a lesson plan from kindergarten through 5th grade. I’ve also had experience taking care of children ages 2 and up. I am great at creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where kids can learn new skills, play sports, do arts and crafts, read, or simply have fun.In addition to childcare, I enjoy cooking and value balanced nutrition. I am patient, attentive, and always strive to make sure every child feels heard, supported, and happy. I look forward to meeting your family and providing reliable, caring support for your kids. If you would like references, I would be happy to provide them :)

I have been in childcare most of my life. My grandmother has ran a dance for over 30 years and I’ve been working with her for over 5. I mostly handle the basic needs for children; watching them, taking them to the restrooms, cleaning up afterwards, feeding them, clothing them, and preparing the children for bed.
