About Kara

Experience: 12 yrs

I'd describe my personality as warm, kind, with just a little bit of humor. I love working with kids because they see the world in such a unique way! Caring and nurturing kids to grow into their best selves is a gift. I love doing activities and crafts with kids and generally getting to embrace my inner child while providing love, care, and guidance for the kids I care for. I'm a Portage native so I know all the best parks and places to visit with kids. I also work as a dog walker/pet sitter, so I'd be happy to help care for your pets as well. I have a wide variety of experience caring for children and creating age appropriate activities. I'm looking for a job that has consistent hours, allows me to take the children on outings, and has clear communication & expectations. I want to be a partner in the care of your child!
