About Karen
Experience: 2 yrs
I am a U. S. Army Military Police Veteran, a married mother of three successful grown young men, and a grandmother to one sweet granddaughter. I was born and raised in New Jersey and moved to Illinois in 2023. My German heritage is something I take pride in, as it has instilled in me a strong sense of discipline, hard work, and integrity. In my spare time, I enjoy being around animals--I've participated in wildlife rehabilitation, kitten fostering, and have a small dog and two tortie cats of my own. I have been picking up a 10yr old girl from school & transporting her home each weekday for 2 years until her mother arrives home from work. I truly enjoy the time I spend with her! I would describe myself as dependable, trustworthy, honest, empathetic, punctual, and kind. Whether I am caring for children or animals, I treat others with respect and compassion, and would be honored to put these attributes to work helping your family. Regards, Karen A. Hecker
