Meet Kara
- Certified Nursing Assistant
- Speaks Spanish
- Comfortable with pets
I'm currently a nursing student, but I have been involved in childcare my whole life. I spent 3 summers working at a daycare and additionally a summer camp. Throughout my undergraduate degree I worked as a preschool teacher. I also lived-in as a nanny for three summers in Spain, so I'm fluent in Spanish as well. I'd love to help care for your children. I have my food handlers card, CPR certified, I have taken child development course and in the state of Oregon I am a step 7 on the early childhood education scale.
