Meet Cara

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I work (remote) full time during the week at a law firm. My typical work hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. I am looking to babysit as needed on week nights as well as weekends. Most recently I have been babysitting for a handful of families for occasional date nights and last minute requests. I have previously babysat kids ranging from the age of newborn to 14 years old. I have 3 nieces that I regularly watch and have since they were born, they are now 2.5 years old, 6 years old, and 14 years old. I also have worked at girls basketball camps in the summer helping girls from the age of 6 to 14 further develop their basketball skills.

Cara was great with our 14 month old during a recent date night. She arrived early enough to get acclimated and for our child to get comfortable with her. She checked in during the night and let us know how things were going. We'd use Cara again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

Cara was great to work with! We hired her when we were in town on family trip and needed a few date nights. She's very communicative from the start, willingly provided a local reference with a stellar review. If we come back to the SD area we'll def work with her again!
