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.
