Savannah W. says:
I found her here on care.com and we met up on the same day. She is very pleasant, informative, patient young woman. She showed me all I needed to know about the website. I am so grateful!

Afterwards we did a short interview. I didn't have my son with me but Kara came well prepared and I was very impressed! She is someone I would hire, however, since I am new to the site I wanted to go through the process,...

Kara is such a lovely, phenomenal person! I interviewed Kara for a part-time job for my daughter. Although she was not hired due to the distance (I wanted someone closer), I really wished I could hire her.

The interview lasted for a few hours, which one of those hours was interacting with my daughter. Usually...

Barbara W. says:
I have worked with Kara several times in the past on short-term babysitting assignments for my now 1-year-old little girl. Kara is a wonderful, caring, responsible babysitter.

She took initiative on days my job had just got the best... More

Lauren H. says:
Kara worked for us as a part-time nanny, and any family would be lucky to have her! She helped us get my son (now 10 months) through a difficult developmental period, and for that we are so thankful. Kara is incredibly reliable -- she was never late, and the one time she needed to take time off, she submitted a written request an entire month in advance. While at work, I never worried about my son's well-being;... More

Kara S. responds:
Great Family! I couldn't have worked for a more better family! Their son melts my heart! He can make any day light up with his smile and ocean blue eyes! Lauren and Adam are truly genuine people who are great parents! I not only worked for a great family, but made really good friends!
