About Karen

Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, and I am dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on the families I support. With 10 years of experience and a graduate degree, I bring a calm, patient, and approachable presence to your home. I am a Certified Teacher, which allows me to incorporate educational games and puzzles into our daily routine to make learning fun. I am a former teacher and college professor and I homeschool my own children. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and maintaining open communication through verbal updates at pickup or via text throughout the day. I am able to watch your children at my house, and I have a car and am happy to assist with travel or creative crafts, and I am always delighted to include your pets in our activities. I look forward to building a meaningful, supportive relationship with your family.
