About Kara

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi! I'm a recent grad from Howard University with a BA in Political Science. I'm from a neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY that has a lot of children, so I got my first paid babysitting job at the age of 13. Since then, I have gained a diverse experience with children. I have worked as as a counselor at two different summer camps, babysat and tutored for nine families, and volunteered at a non-profit for children. I also have three younger siblings, so I can naturally connect with those younger than me. I think it's important to treat kids with respect and kindness, so they may emulate these traits in the world. Being the oldest sibling, I am also extremely organized and punctual, level-headed, and resourceful. I am qualified and capable of providing a safe, happy environment for your little ones!
