About Lara

Experience: 10 yrs

I have 15+ years' worth of experience babysitting children from infants to teenage and I also have worked in educational settings (after school programming and summer camp.) I am energetic, enjoy playing board games, doing art projects, or even taking trips around the neighborhood with the kids. I am also willing to cook for them (or cook with them!) and do light housework. Patience is one of my biggest qualities and I am as reasonable as possible. I have a healthy balance of making sure the child feels loved while additionally being keen on my rules. I am also an educator and believe babysitters need to reinforce and provide modes of fun and developmental skills. I will do anything in my power to love and entertain your child, contribute to their developmental milestones, and most of all, keep them safe.

I highly recommend Lara! She has provided care for my infant daughter and 4yo son as well as helped with housekeeping and meal planning/prep for 6 months and counting. She is reliable, trustworthy, communicative, proactive, attentive and loving! Both of my kids adore her and light up when she comes to our house. She goes the extra mile for all of us and has been such a blessing to our family. We are grateful for her!
