About Carina

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Need a part-time ninja grandma? Backup sitter? Baby Whisperer? I'd describe myself as confident, inventive, independent. I like kids because they're so creative and unencumbered! Babies are just beautiful! I think children should be nurtured and guided and respected for their uniqueness, not talked down to. I love being a grandma and mom- 4 each! I (and they) think I've done a great job so I'd love to use that and have a continuing impact on others. I started working with kids when I was a big sister at 10, babysat by 14! CPR/First Aid certified! Purdue graduate in social psychology! In my spare time, I like to read, TV, camp. My top child care skills include listening... and being a responsible, safety-minded but fun adult. Rates negotiable!

Carina has been the biggest help to our family. She is great with both the baby & young teen and very engaging with both. She is always on time, keeps to sleep routines and feeding schedules, and is beyond helpful with extra tasks around the house. It has been such a relief to have someone so reliable and willing to help out with those extra things that will put a little more time back into my week. 10/10 She is awesome.
