Kara loves being a Nanny in Long Island, NY because caring for children brings out the fun and outgoing side of her!

"If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the Nanny profession over any other it would have to be because I love taking care of children and getting to know families. I have been serving in some form of childcare experience for over 16 years and can honestly say I love what I do! I feel children are fun to be around. My goal as a Nanny is to help the family see their children grow in a safe and educational environment. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes laundry, dishes, and generally clean around the house. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am fun, responsible, dedicated, flexible, and loving. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include play dates with children, read to them, and take them to the park when possible. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me I would hope they would be welcoming, polite, and trusting."

"Kara has been extremely hardworking, trustworthy and reliable. She works long hours without complaint, is flexible and often spends the night. We are both working parents who travel and she responds fabulously, even when things change at the last minute. She played a major role in raising our three sons, ages 10, 7 and 3. She also helped care for our now 2-year-old niece. She cooks for the children, cleans, and launders diligently. She's traveled on vacation with us, worked weekends whenever asked and has an engaging, energetic personality. With our children growing and our work schedules changing, our family has different needs now, but we would still recommend her highly. She knows the area well and is terrific as a housekeeper/caregiver. Our children love her and she adores them, too. Kara would be an asset to any family as a Nanny in Long Island, NY, and I am happy to give her my wholehearted endorsement."

"Kara has been one of the best assets our family could have asked for in the last 11 months. She has been a huge influence in all of our lives as well as that of our son. Kara has been taking care of our son since he was six weeks old. Her long term experience as a nanny really fulfilled all of our expectations. Our family follows a very hectic schedule, between our jobs, our son and the dynamics associated with new parenthood, Kara has always been accommodating, responsible, and genuine. We love her sense of humor! Recently our family had to relocate to the west coast and we are all very sad that we cannot bring her with us. However, we would strongly and lovingly recommend her to any of her future employers. She is truly one of a kind."

"Kara fulfilled all of her job requirements. She helped prepare and serve dinner, cleaned up after the children were finished eating, directed activities, and assisted with homework. It was a pleasure having Kara volunteer her hours at the facility. She always had new and fun learning ideas for the children, she was open to opinions from others, and she adapted well to her environment. The part of the day that really showed Kara’s character was when she helped the children with their homework. She was eager for the children to enhance their abilities to learn new and different things. She made learning fun for the children. She was always accommodating, adaptable, interactive, mild mannered, and certainly well qualified! I highly recommend her for a childcare position, especially a Nanny in Long Island, NY position."

"Kara has been a part of my son's life since he has been a few months old. She has been wonderful in every way possible. She made each day a little easier dropping Zachary off. Being a mom and knowing you have to drop your baby off with someone you really don't know is one of the hardest things. Kara always makes us feel that he is safe and in good hands. Kara always takes time to talk to my husband and I about Zachary's day and how he does throughout the days he has been at KinderCare. You can see every morning how each child's face lights up as they run to see her and hug her. She has that special gift of caring for children. She takes time for each child to make them feel special and to show them that they are important. Whether it's playing with them, teaching them, or just comforting them when they're having a rough day, or not feeling well. I can also trust in the fact that Kara will not hesitate to call me at work if something is wrong. I will truly miss Kara being a part of Zachary's life and I know he will too. But we wish her the best and anyone is lucky to have Kara as a Nanny. I haven't met a child or a parent whose does not think the world of Kara. She is just that type of person you want caring for your child. She has all the quality's you could ever ask for."
