Hi there! My name is Kara and I’m 30 years old. Currently, I work as a full time professional nanny for a 1 year old girl! I have cared for children ranging from newborn (few days old) all the way up to middle school age with several years experience. The best qualities to describe me would be honest, outgoing, trustworthy, creative, and fun. I'm also CPR certified and first aid certified. In my spare time I like to spend time at the beach, spend time with friends, stay active, reading books, doing anything outdoors, or doing really anything to stay busy. Patience is key and children are my passion. I have also taken multiple classes regarding newborns, infants, and toddlers based upon safety, general care, and sleep conditioning!! Last but not least, I’m a certified advanced newborn care specialist, in a self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified postpartum doula, as well as another self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified pediatric sleep consultant! Hope to hear from you!

Hi! I have been working with kids of all ages for many years, and I especially enjoy watching babies! I was an infant nanny for 3 different families before I became a Kindergarten teacher (6 years). I am now a stay-at-home step-mom to 4 and a mother of a 1 year old. While the older kids attend school, my toddler and I enjoy being outside, walking, cooking, reading, exploring, going to the playground, going on picnics, singing, dancing, playing instruments, etc. I am looking for a supplemental income so we can keep up with all these kids! I would watch a baby in my own home (Fort Jackson). I would treat him/her like my own child <3 Please let me know if you are interested in talking further! God Bless, Abi S.
