About Grace

Hi! I am an experienced childcare provider, licensed elementary teacher, and have a deep joy and love for caring for kiddos as they learn and grow. I have cared for children ages birth through 13 years in a variety of settings, including homes, early childhood centers, and elementary classrooms. I hold a bachelors degree in elementary education with a minor in human development from OSU. I am flexible with scheduling, love pets, and have no problem with busy households. I have experience supporting children with diverse needs, including autism, ADHD, and visual and hearing impairments. I love crafting, music, and the outdoors. I enjoy creating engaging experiences for children as they learn grow and play. I feel deeply that every child should have an environment in which they feel empowered to explore, supported in their growth, and loved unconditionally and am committed to creating environments which support that.
