Nanny in Edmonton, Alberta

Hi there! I'm Kara, and I'm thrilled to introduce myself as your experienced and nurturing nanny. My journey in childcare began at the young age of 10 when I first started babysitting for family and friends. Even then, I felt a deep connection with children and a passion for helping them learn and grow. By the time I turned 18, I had transitioned into a professional nanny, dedicating myself to providing top-notch care for little ones. In addition to my extensive experience in childcare, I also have the joy of being a parent myself. I have two wonderful children of my own, aged 9 and 15, who fill my life with love, laughter, and endless adventures. Being a mom has given me invaluable insights and a deep understanding of the joys and challenges of parenthood, which I bring to my role as a nanny every day. My entrepreneurial spirit led me to establish my own dayhome, where I created a warm and inviting space for children to thrive. It was during this time that I realized the importance of supporting mothers, especially during the postpartum period. That's when I decided to become a peer support counselor, offering guidance and empathy to moms navigating the joys and challenges of motherhood. With decades of experience under my belt, I've had the privilege of caring for children of all ages in various settings. From being a night nanny to twins to being hired as an infant caregiver, I've seen it all and loved every moment of it. I believe in providing a well-rounded experience for the children in my care, which is why I enjoy engaging in a wide range of activities. Whether it's diving into a captivating storybook, zooming toy cars around the room, getting crafty with arts and crafts, whipping up delicious treats in the kitchen, or exploring the great outdoors, I'm always up for an adventure. Above all, my goal is to create a nurturing and loving environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I'm excited to embark on this journey with your family and look forward to making lasting memories together!
