About Clara

Hi, I'm Clara! I've nannied and babysat for several years in the city. I graduated a few years ago with my degree in costume design and I freelance design and sew all over the city. I love arts and crafts, painting, swimming, traveling, cooking, and spending time with my friends. I've worked with kids as young as 3 and as old as 13, in households with anywhere from 1 to 3 kids. I'd describe my personality as creative, curious, and calm (alliteration not intended). I like working with kids because they're so observant and curious about the world. It's always so interesting to hear what they think and what they're interested in. Beyond nannying, I directed a children's operetta and one of the best parts was letting the kids come up with some of the blocking or the humor. I started working with kids when I was about 19, so 4 years ago now. In my spare time, I like to paint (oil and watercolor are my favorite), swim, cook, sew, and spend time with friends.
