About Karen

Experience: 3 yrs

Hii! My name is Karen and I'm 26 yo About me: I have a couple years of experience caring for children of all ages. I am patient, calm, creative, friendly, fun and energetic, always trying my best to keep the kids busy out of screens, with board games, puzzles, educational games, playing outside and the obe that I love: arts&crafts. I have a car and am comfortable with pets, I hold a degree in physical therapy and I'm also certified in CPR and First Aid. I speak English and Portuguese and I'm looking forward to meeting you and your little ones, and creating a fun and safe environment where she can learn and grow! I am happy to follow your preferred communication method, whether it's written daily reports or regular text updates and comfortable enforcing household rules. But the most important question, are you available to start in October?

Absolutely amazing woman! She is so caring and patient with my children and always goes the extra mile to make sure they are having the best time. She looks after them as if they were her own children and I couldn’t ask for a better nanny. She is one of a kind!
