Meet Kara

I have been babysitting/working with children for 10+ years. I began babysitting family member's and close friend's children, then moved to working in a daycare. I am First aid and CPR certified. I also have my Early Childhood Education Credential Level 3. I enjoy working with children because I find passion in seeing children grow socially, emotionally, and cognitively.
