Hi, my name is Kara! I am 26 years old and I adore kids. I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and I have even been a nanny in Italy for 3 children, where I lived in the home and cared for the children, helped with school work, and did basic household upkeeps. During the summer, I typically volunteer at my church to teach Vacation Bible Study (VBS) for children 5 and under. I am very comfortable working with children of any age (I've personally taken care of children 2-months-old and up to 12-years-old) and I am confident that I am the best fit for your needs. I also have experience nannying full-time for a two-year-old with special needs. I am currently working on another degree in Early Childhood Development online. I am very outgoing and friendly as well as reliable and have great communication skills. I Read more love to bake and cook in my free time as well as read and go to the beach. I also love to travel and have been to 20 countries! I am available and ready to start working with a family on a consistent basis and look forward to speaking with your family! I am also COVID vaccinated!
