About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi there :) I am born and raised in the California Bay Area. I moved to Long Island many years ago where I raised my family. I am extremely reliable, loving, nurturing, peaceful, easy going and very experienced. I have cared for so many wonderful children over the years. I feel so grateful for that. I became a nanny which I've been doing for 14 years now. I've made some truly incredible connections with the families I cared for. I had a state licensed day care prior to being a nanny, for many years while my own children were growing up. I am a mom to 5 grown children. I am not sure how they grew up so quickly. And now I'm a Nana which is my greatest joy !! I truly feel that I was put on earth to care for children. I still am in touch with so many of the kids I cared for. I even have watched kids of kids that were once in my daycare. It's so wonderful !! I am a nature lover, animal lover and rescuer. I love to hike, yoga and meditation.

I feel so lucky to have found Karen! Karen was the nanny for my two boys. She is incredibly reliable and communicative. She is kind, patient and attentive -- both of my boys absolutely adore her. I always felt at ease leaving them in Karen's care. Although we no longer need a nanny, I know that Karen will always be a part of our family.
