About Kara
Experience: 6 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi parents! My name is Kara, and I'm looking to help out with the occasional daytime or date night babysitting- open to regular hours too for the right fit. I am in my early 30s (responsible/reliable) currently in grad school studying to become a mental health therapist. I am also a Boston College graduate and have experience with ages 2 and up. I would feel most comfortable with one to two children. I am an experienced diaper-changer too in case any of your kids aren't yet potty trained. My babysitting approach is creative, engaging, kind and patient, and I am more than fine with households with pets. Please feel free to direct message me if this sounds like a match or if you have any further questions!

Kara cared for my two young children, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her - she’s wonderful! Kara instantly connected with my kids, soothed their worries, and came up with many creative ways to engage with them. She is kind, thoughtful, playful, and incredibly responsible. We look forward to having Kara care for our children again!
