Outgoing grad student with a BA and 8 years of experience caring for children. My passion is to help your kids get inspired, get active, and get learning! I have traveled all over the world to Myanmar, England, Ireland, Spain, Czech Republic, and Germany, and live in Portland, Oregon. I don't believe in processed food and prepare natural foods for children in my care. I prefer a stack of library books and a pile of craft supplies over watching television but I am flexible enough to match my care taking style to the family's normal routine. Homework help is one of my specialties and I have 5 years of experience tutoring students in writing and the humanities. I'm comfortable around pets, I recycle, and I commute everywhere I go via TriMet or bicycle.
