A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Kiara! I am a nursing student at OHSU who absolutely loves working with kids. Nannying was my first job when I was 12 years old. Currently, I am on summer break until late September. If you are a family that needs a part-time nanny or someone to babysit several times a week then I am your perfect match!

My family and friends call me a busybody because I love to engage in many hobbies and organizations to uplift my community. A few months ago, I was elected as the Oregon Student Nursing Association president, overseeing all the Oregon nursing program associations. I also work as a liaison (All-Hill representative) between OHSU's nursing program and the University to discuss pressing matters in the nursing, dental, and medical programs and vote on funding to change these issues. A few of my hobbies are cooking, baking, hiking, going to the gym, singing, and studying artwork, and I am trying to learn how to play the piano right now!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The first time I saw my kid walk was one of my proudest nannying moments. He would also give "superpower" hugs to everyone because he believed they could heal anyone and fix their day.
