Experience: 10 yrs
I have an Associate of Science in Human Services with a focus on Early Childhood Education. I've worked with children through internships at the Berkshire Center for Families and Children, Crosby Elementary, and the Boys & Girls Club. I believe every child deserves respect, patience, and care. I currently care for a family on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They'll be taking a short maternity leave starting late August 2026, and I'll return once the mom goes back to work. In the meantime, I'm available for short-term or fill-in opportunities.
There is no one else in the world like Cara; she is simply amazing. Shes been with our family since November of 2022, when our son was just four months old. She is attentive, knowledgable, and full of love for children. She has helped our son grow and celebrates the milestones alongside us. My son adores her and its clear the amazing bond she has formed with him. He lights up when she shows up. I thank my lucky stars for her every Thursday&Friday. She is outstanding.
