My name is Karla and I absolutely love caring for children! I moved from my hometown Bolivia to the United States when I was 13 years old. I started to take care of kids when I was a freshman in high school. I began helping a family friend, then with time I became a private nanny/ sitter to other wonderful families. I have a total of 12 years of experience, with ages ranging from newborn to teenagers. I enjoy the outers, arts and crafts, reading, creative play and teaching/engaging all the fun to their development learning. I believe children should have a memorable learning experience while doing indoor and outdoor activities and I will help them make that experience unforgettable! I would describe myself as being patient, caring, loving, responsible and passionate about helping children learn and grow. Being a nanny is a very rewarding job because I can positively Read more influence a child’s development. I always take precautionary measures to provide for the safety of the children under my care. Although environments can be busy and noisy, I always make sure I stay focused and alert of my surroundings. I enjoy my doing my job and make sure they are happy and safe.
