My name is Kara Jo and I am an energetic student at Carson Newman University! I am in my sophomore year of college, and I am independent from my parents in finances and living. I am currently residing in Jefferson City, but I am willing to travel a little! I am certified in First Aid and CPR, and have experience with lifesaving techniques after two years as an Ellis and Associates Lifeguard at Splash Country in Pigeon Forge. I absolutely love kids and have extensive experience with babysitting. I have multiple references!

Kara babysat for my five and one year old while we were on vacation in TN. She was wonderful! We couldn't have asked for better. She made our trip so much more enjoyable with an extra pair of hands. She was always on time, sweet and great with my kids! She came with us to attractions and also stayed home with both children with my husband and I went out. I would HIGHLY recommend her!
