A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Grace. A bit about me, I recently graduated from cosmetology school. I’m looking to settle down while finishing my testing for my full cosmetology license now. Ive babysat for the kids in my neighbor hood for years till the grew up and didn’t need me anymore. Ive always been good with kids, whether they are in the clingy stages or the independent stages. I’m always prepared for different emotions that may come up on the daily. I am the baby of the family and I understand how it feels to be treated too much like a baby. I try to relate with the kids on that part of things. I don’t like to use the word disabling but rather teaching. That’s what it is, them learning what is okay and what is inappropriate. I like to show them that they can be free and have fun!
