About Karen

Experience: 7 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'm interested in helping make your lives a little easier even if it's just a date night. I raised 2 fabulous kids who are now amazing adults. I used to read to them for hours at bedtime, and then I'd sing lullabies while they were falling asleep. One of them had a lot of difficulties, but I'm proud to say he's doing great now. I love to teach and can tutor a number of subjects. (I have a Masters from Yale (nonprofit management) and a BA from Williams College (psychology and Spanish literature). I love virtually all kids, and I'm sure I'll love yours. I'm looking for jobs where I can be of real value to a family. In my spare time, I often read or do something athletic. I'm also a bit of a news junkie. What's going on now in this country I love is fascinating. If I don't have time to get outside, I'll turn on my playlist of great dance tunes and just dance around my living room. I also love to cook. I recently the CPR/first aid training class offered by Quality Nannies.
