This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I love taking care of kids. I've worked with newborns up to age 10 for the past 15 years. I'm very passionate about kids. I think they are our angels on this earth. I love to get right down on the floor with them and see the smile on their faces when I'm playing with them. As we go along we are learning very important milestones, from potty training to abc's, etc.

We have been blessed to have Karen as a part of our family the last nine (9!) years. She joined us right after the birth of our first daughter and helped raise all three of our daughters (now aged 9, 6, and 4). Karen took our daughters on long walks, taught them to nap, bathed them, cared for them when they were sick, & helped teach them to crawl, potty train and even ride a bike. She helps with endless baby-related tasks and laundry. She is calm and stabilizing even when we are stressed. We are lucky to know that our kids are always in the best possible care - it's a kind of relief that's invaluable. Now that our kids are in school full days, we know it's time for Karen to support a new family and bring the joy, calm, and love that she gave us. I'm not sure how we'll survive without Karen but we would be happy to talk on the phone - we have many stories to tell. We received glowing letters of recommendation when we hired Karen & I hope we provide the same reassurance to you!
