Meet Kara

Hi! I'm a 27-year-old graphic designer living in Brooklyn Heights. I grew up in Columbus, Ohio and studied Musical Theater at Northwestern (go 'Cats!). I have a full-time job now, but when I was performing, I spent four years nannying for two awesome NYC families that I found on SitterCity. I also volunteer as a Supporting Teaching Artist for CO/LAB, an organization that provides theater and music classes to adults with developmental disabilities. I love arts & crafts and especially enjoy being creative with kids. Past babysitting adventures have included creating popsicle stick model airplanes, DIY weaving looms, paper mache masterpieces, and oven-baked clay figurines! I'm looking for some occasional weekend/evening babysitting hours to supplement my current income. Please message me if you would like to know more. I'd love to hear from you!
