Experience: 10 yrs
I bring more than 20 years of caring for children and supporting families. I have a college degree and current First Aid and CPR certification. I'm trained as a postpartum doula. I live in West Hartford. I don't smoke. I drive. Most of my recent work has been with newborns and infants. I enjoy children of all ages, including toddlers and preschoolers. I can help older children after school and in the evening. My preferred schedule is afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I'm seeking regular reoccurring work with a family. I'll show up with a calm and loving presence. I enjoy incorporating quiet play, music, stories, puzzles, and board games. I'll support outside play and fresh air whenever possible. I'll follow the routines and values of your home. I show up like "Nana." Warm. Protective of children. Helpful to parents. I want to be part of the circle of care helping your family feel supported. I look forward to meeting you and your family.
Dear Karen came to help us when we needed someone the most. She cared for my twins with such love and tenderness. Every time I came home, my babies were well-rested, well-fed, happy, and clean. She will forever be my kids’ Nana.
