I am an experienced and responsible babysitter with a creative energy and positive attitude! I come from a big family and am the eldest of all the siblings. I started off watching my sisters and then their friends—soon taking over my hometown. I naturally rose as a leader in my church and local children’s theatre, where I volunteered and taught classes. My senior year of high school, I had an internship at my local children’s theatre. During college, spent most of my free time with the youth of Memphis. I founded an after school program for low-income elementary school students and taught classes from K-12. I babysar infant through middle school age children during my time in college as well. During the summers when not at internships, I nannied for elementary aged children. The parents dubbed it “Camp Karissa!” Even when I was studying abroad, I missed kids and volunteered Read more at kindergarten in Prague! I am currently living in Chicago for a year or two before graduate school (I intend to purse a career in arts admin, ideally theatre education) and it would be an honor to watch your kids! They would have a super fun and super safe time under my care! If you are looking for a caring, intellengent, and responsible babysitter—I’m your gal!
