Hi Families,
My name is Kari Peterson, and I’m looking for a full-time nanny position starting mid-January after I graduate high school.
This fall, I’ll begin an online finance degree program, allowing me to fully dedicate myself to caring for your family!

I have experience with children of all ages as an assistant teacher at a daycare (part-time during the year and full-time over the summer).
My rate is $17 an hour with full time work, and over the counter payment!
I truly love working with kids and believe in shining my light by helping them grow, thrive, and feel loved.
I’m reliable, hardworking, and have my own transportation for errands or kids’ activities. I also enjoy keeping things clean and organized!
If you’re looking for a caring and dependable nanny, please feel free to reach out—I’d love to chat! ❤️❤️
