About Cara
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a recently retired teacher with over 30 years of educating elementary aged children including special needs and ESL. I'm used to managing groups of 25 children for 8 different lessons throughout the day so multitasking and management are my specialties. My passion is to share my love for nature, adventure, and compassion towards all living things. I have also raised three successful children who are my pride and joy. In addition, we are the proud owners of a dog that we rescued from the Humane Society. I enjoy hiking, biking, playing pickleball, reading and working in the yard. I have all of the Covid vaccines including both boosters, CPR certification, all clearances required for public school teaching and do not smoke. I have my own vehicle as well which has supported me in working and driving my children to numerous athletic practices and dance lessons. I consider myself responsible, reliable, patient and kind.
