Description

Hey, my name is Grace. I am 18 years old

I have grown up in a small village outside of Glasgow, Scotland surrounded by endless countryside. I would like to consider myself a mix of a city kid but also country as although my house is in the country I am only wee drive away from the city itself. I love nature, I could spend all day outside especially taking day trips to the highlands as there is much to explore within my small country as the scenery is endless.

when I was younger I always had a love for animals and as I get older that has only expanded, through my dog Luna. Dogs are only a small part of my love for animals as I have always ridden horses but my knowledge for them isn't huge as I have never been lucky enough to own one myself but have been keen in the sport none the less. I would consider myself well informed in the riding part from trail rides to jumping to dressage, although I have only ever ridden English I am very interested to not only learning to care for a horse but also the western style of ridding.

I am also experienced in child care from having a babysitting job at age 13 to helping my mum with her job as a childminder.

More details about your skills

Hi, i am a confident young woman open to learning new skills but I have knowledge in hospitality from working in a restaurant for the last two years this allowed me to work in high demand and expand my cooking, cleaning and prep work skills.

I love all types of animals, I have had my own dog (Luna) for the last 5 years and I am also an experienced equine riding as I have been riding for the last twelve years.

I am good with kids from experience with helping out with my mum’s job as a childminder, this has allowed me to work with all ages and different needs. I am also the youngest of five kids so I am use to chaos and able to adapt to different and challenging situations.

Age

19

What else ...

I am a family oriented person so I love game nights, road trips, days out. Movies are a guilty pleasure of mine, love all different genres.

I have just left high school and hoping to travel in my gap year before going onto further education. I am from Scotland and live in a small village so most of my days are spent outside no matter the weather.

I also love anything creative, drawing, painting etc. I can bake and cook meals at a large quantity if needed and open to learning new dishes and cultures as well as sharing my own.
