Hi! My name is Bella Griste! I am currently enrolled at the Savannah College of Art and Design as a Junior. I love improv, screenwriting and musicals and my favorite Disney movie is Monster's University. My mom is an art teacher for kids in the age range of 2-6 so I've always been lucky to be around them and see first hand the impact a great role teacher/role model can have on kids. I've done a lot of childcare work with the kids at that preschool (TLC in Myrtle Beach) and got to work later on caretaking for a business called A Helping Hand taking care of military kids during their stays out of state. I've been doing that for the last year and a half and it's been a joy. Obviously, being in school it's hard to maintain a normal 9-5 with classes and extracurriculars - So I figured I could combine my love for kids and my student schedule and try out Sittertree!
