A little bit about me

Hello! I'm Grace, a freshman at the University of Minnesota, double majoring in Political Science and Communications. Growing up, I was the 'big sister' to my nieces, who are closer in age to me than my actual siblings. This meant I spent a lot of time babysitting them from a young age, which helped me gain tons of experience in childcare—everything from bedtime routines to school projects. I still love spending time with them and helping out whenever I can!

Now that I'm in college, I'm looking for a flexible way to earn extra money for my education, and babysitting seems like the perfect fit. I'm open to taking on various tasks, whether it's homework help, meal prep, or just keeping your little ones entertained. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to chat about how I can help your family!
