Profile Title: Experienced and Compassionate Childcare Provider with a Background in Education and Coaching About Me: Hi! My name is Cara, and I am a dedicated childcare provider with experience working with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. My background in gymnastics coaching and early childhood education has given me valuable skills in creating fun, engaging, and developmentally appropriate activities. I am patient, energetic, and passionate about providing a safe and nurturing environment for children. I have worked as a Teacher Assistant in a daycare setting, where I assisted with daily routines, classroom management, and individualized support. My experience also includes being a gymnastics coach, where I helped children develop confidence, coordination, and social skills. Beyond structured activities, I have worked in customer service roles that strengthened my ability to multitask, communicate effectively, and remain calm under pressure—essential qualities for any childcare provider!

I come from a large immediate and extended family that is very kid-centric, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. Growing up surrounded by little ones, I developed a natural ability to engage with kids, create fun activities, and handle the unexpected with patience and ease. I take pride in fostering a caring, supportive, and fun atmosphere where children feel safe to explore and grow. Whether you need a full-time nanny, part-time babysitter, or occasional childcare support, I would love to be a part of your family's journey!
