About Kara

Experience: 10 yrs

I was a pediatric nurse for 15 years and a mother to an amazing daughter. I am very nurturing, love babies, and kids absolutely brighten up my day. I am available as needed or a very part time basis. I am comfortable taking care of sick and medically complex kiddos. Willing to do overnights as well.

We hit the jackpot with Kara. From day one, she’s shown so much love for our son, and the feeling is clearly mutual. He lights up the second she walks through the door. Kara spends every visit fully engaged, reading and playing the entire time. She has a genuine love for children and the sweetest, most nurturing personality. We trust her completely, even when our son goes to her home. On top of all that, she’s been an advocate for his health, helping us push for more answers from his GI specialists when we had concerns. We couldn’t love Miss Kara more, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly (just promise you won’t take her from us!).
