About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! My name is Karen and I am a responsible retired 60 year young woman who is creative, fun, loving, maternal and I love children! I have been married for 32 years and am very stable. I have my bachelors in fine arts. I am an artist by trade and have owned a business for 20 years. I raised two amazing human beings that are a positive addition to society. I am very nurturing with good boundaries. I am an advocate for oppressed populations and a big fan of teaching children compassion, humility and kindness. I am a non smoker and drinker. Interested in a healthy physical, spiritual and emotional lifestyle. I would love to get to know your children! I miss the great energy children possess and feel I am additive to all the children's lives that I am lucky enough to be a part of. Please let me know if you have any questions.

My daughter and I adore Karen. Karen has lovingly cared for my daughter four days a week and will have been with us for ten months when my daughter starts her formal toddler program. She started caring for my daughter when she was six months old and has poured so much love and kindness into her days. She is incredibly trust worthy, calm natured, and present in every moment. She fosters creativity, fun, and laughter with every activity she does. Karen instantly began getting to know my daughter, and understood her essence from the start. With all the changes and milestones in an infants life, through becoming a toddler, Karen meets her where she is with each new day (and mood), which is incredibly special. Her intuition and presence with my daughter has created a bond between them that I cherish. Karen is a treasure and we will miss her daily presence dearly.
