Hi, my name is Kara! A little about myself, I am currently a full time nanny for a family in Dublin, but have recently found out that they can no longer afford a nanny due to a change in their job situation. Before this I worked for The Ohio State University as a research assistant in an Entomology Laboratory for 4 years. My husband and I recently got married last year and bought a home in Columbus. I enjoy spending time with friends and family, playing board games, taking photos, and traveling. I love animals, the outdoors, hiking, and all things Disney. I really enjoy being a nanny and being able to teach kids new topics. I babysat in high school and continued through college, and now regularly for various families. I have babysitting experience with infants to children up to 14 years. I would enjoy teaching kids and allowing Read more them to better understand the world around them. Much of my spare time went into caring for families as that is something I enjoyed doing. I also enjoy cleaning and helping organize which is what my current employer loves! My passion is being around children and wanting to someday be a mom. I have both adult and pediatric CPR, first aid, and AED training. Ideally I am looking for a full time, taxable position for a great family where I can have the opportunity to not only look after kids, but also engage them in being outdoors, building, crafts, and reading. If interested please feel free to tell me what you are looking for and more about the position. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks and all the best ~Kara :)
