A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Grace Smith, and I’m a 20-year-old student currently attending Texas State University online. I absolutely love working with kids and have been fortunate to do so in nearly every job I’ve had, including my current position. While I’m excited to be moving back down to San Marcos from Dallas, I will truly miss my current job and the wonderful people there. I’ve always had a passion for staying active,I’ve tried just about every sport imaginable! I was a competitive gymnast for nine years, and then transitioned to cheerleading through my freshman year of college. When I’m not studying or working, I love spending time with my cat, whom I care for like she’s my baby. I’m a bubbly, outgoing, and caring person, and I’m so excited for the opportunity to bring my energy and love for children to a new role! 😊

A little bit about me

Internship Teaching Project Transformation Rio Texas
I worked with kids every day—leading activities, creating lesson plans, helping with behavior, and keeping in touch with parents.

I’m just here to help families who need childcare. I know how hard it can be, and it’s never been about the money for me. I charge low rates because I want to support parents who are doing their best but could use a hand. I’m financially stable, so this is more about giving back. I’d rather help someone keep their job than have to choose between work and their kids. I’m also happy to travel to you.
