About Karas

Hello! I grew up in a large family and have always enjoyed working with children. I have a degree in K-8 Education and have substituted or tutored all grades, K-12. I have also babysat for almost all ages since I was 12. I work with young children in my church and have also worked in and run summer camps. I am a mother of a 5-year-old daughter and am expecting to give birth to another daughter this Christmas. At that time, I will staying home from my current teaching job and open to caring for another child or children, provided I can bring my baby as well. I am a big fan of building language, motor skills, literacy, and numeracy, and encouraging interaction. With my first daughter we did a ton of walks, trips to the park, library, farms, etc. I prefer to eliminate or limit screen time. Happy to help with housekeeping, meal prep, etc. If it sounds like our families would be a good fit, please reach out! (Reminder: Most likely looking to nanny or babysit closer to February 2024)
