About Caren

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a 45-year-old preschool teacher who worked in Scarsdale for 19 years. I taught 2s, 3s and 4s as well as elementary school aged children. I have been a nanny for many years as well. I have been babysitting for 30+ years and I am experienced with children from newborns to preteens. I was a Girl Scout leader for many years. I am first aid and CPR certified and trained in giving many kinds of medication including EpiPens and asthma medications. I'm not a babysitter who parks the kids in front of the TV. I like to get on the floor and play with the kids. I love to read to children and get them interested in books. I like to sing, dance, do arts and crafts, pretend play, run around outside and have fun with the children in my care. Safety is my number one priority. I am a licensed driver and can either use my car with car seats provided, or the families car for outings, driving to, and from activities and school pick ups. I hope I am the right person to take care of your children.

Caren is the most loving, patient and trust-worthy babysitter you will ever find. My children adore her! She give them her full-attention at all times. She jumps right in and can handle everything from newborn care, helping kids with homework, playing games on the living room floor and driving to after-school activities. She is willing to do it all! I love how she really TALKS to my kids - she is genuinely interested in what they have to say and makes them feel important. She is extremely reliable - we can always count on Caren for great care. I highly recommend Caren!
