Hello! My name is Karen, and I'm an 18-year-old ballerina beginning my first professional season with State Street Ballet here in Santa Barbara. I might be young, but I have plenty of experience with kids. To begin, I have been a babysitter for my two step-siblings since they were 3 and 6 years old. My more professional babysitting experience, however, has been with a long-term family of two young children, now ages 2 and 6, who I have now cared for four years--I'd be pleased to give you their contact information as a reference. I am excellent with kids. I am an exciting, fun, but responsible, mature, and patient person, which is great for little ones. I am here for you!
