Kara babysat for us a couple of times and on one occasion helped at a Christmas party where there were multiple children! Given her work at the school, she was amazing at engaging the boys and playing with them - they are slight covid babies so very shy at first, but immediately went to Kara and felt very comfortable.
Would highly recommend.

We used Kara a number of times with our 1 yr old girl. She was very engaging with our daughter from the moment we met. Our child was happy to be left and we trusted she was in safe hands. No issues.

I can't recommend Kara highly enough for both nannying work and general baby sitting.
Kara worked as a nanny for our family and looked after our twin girls who were 13 months old at the time. Kara is a safe, calm and very responsible person who also knows how to have fun with babies and children. I would not hesitate in employing Kara again.
