Kara’s Bio
Hello Outgoing Family!
My name is Kara, I am a mother of two "adult" daughters. I am a former foster mother and emergency child care worker. I do hospice and home health, about 17 yrs on and off. Therefore I am very good with children to elders from colds to extra chromosomes!! Medication and medical treatment organization and companion care are my specialty. I am available to travel for various purposes as well as over nights, sick families and hospital stay care as well.
I have pretty open availability with minimal notice. I am looking for a family that will treat me as I treat them, family! Open communication, trust worthy and respectful mutual relationships are a must. I enjoy cooking immensely and house choirs are just fine with me.
I am out doors, love finding fun and education outings, rainy day crafts, book readings and I have a a specialty in TBI/SPECIAL NEEDS (
I have been told by other families that I have " the patience of a saint". I just think I have compassion.
As outgoing as my personality is, I do like to let my families know that I am quite a bit of body art. Nothing offensive or questionable, but their a very important part of who I am.
Please contact me, if youd be interested in conversing more about my experiences.
