About Cara

Experience: 7 yrs

My time as a babysitter solidified my desire to support families and provide reliable care. I'm patient, calm, and always ready with creative ideas to keep little ones engaged and learning. I keep parents in the loop about their child's day, either with verbal communication at pick-up or regular text or phone call updates, depending on their preference. I believe in following the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. My favorite games to play with children include outdoor sports and physical games, board games and puzzles, and educational games that promote learning. Love to bake, read and spend time being active! I have CPR training, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I speak English and am comfortable caring for three children at a time.
