Grace $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Grace and I recently finished my Master's Degree in Teaching alongside my elementary teaching license. This year I student taught in a 4th grade classroom :) I am located in NE Portland near Irving Park. I have a dog and love all animals. I am also primarily vegan, but am comfortable making dishes that include meat for your kiddos if desired! I will be available until the beginning of the school year, around the end of August. I grew up watching my many cousins, and have years of experience babysitting with kids from 1yrs old to 10yrs old. I can change diapers, cook, clean, and bottle feed. I love spending time outside, being active, and making art. These are all things I'd love to do with your kids as well. Thank you for considering letting me spend time getting to know you and your children.

Hi, my name is Brooke and I use they/them pronouns. I'm here to help care for either your kiddos or pets. I have experience caring for infants and school-aged children focusing on enriching play like arts, crafts, music, outdoor exploring, and really whatever keeps your kids healthy and happy. I am a long-time pet owner and have previous animal shelter volunteer experience. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, amphibians, and aquatic pets. And I'm willing to learn how to care for your pet if they don't fall into those categories.

Brooke was very professional, punctual and my babies loved them!
