About Karen

Experience: 20 yrs

Nurturing children and supporting families has been my professional focus for 20 years. My journey began with a home-based childcare for over 20 years in Michigan. It inspired my lifelong commitment to making a positive impact on young lives. I am a patient, creative, and approachable caregiver who is comfortable managing the needs of up to four children, ranging from infants to pre-teens. My background includes Early Child Development coursework, First Aid Training, and CPR Training. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and carpooling. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I look forward to providing safe supervision during water activities. I prioritize your preferred communication style for daily updates and remain firm in upholding your household rules. Whether we are playing board games or exploring the outdoors, I am dedicated to being a reliable partner in your child's growth. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted part of your family.

Karen came to us as our sister’s long-term nanny and we immediately understood why she was so valued. She cared for our newborn and primarily our 3-year-old, and we couldn’t have asked for a better match. Karen challenges our daughter to read and write while keeping it fun and engaging. They stayed active together with regular trips to the library, splash pads, and the aquarium, and our daughter genuinely looked forward to her days with Karen. We’re only parting ways because our daughter is starting school full-time, and we’re sad to see her go. We plan to have her back occasionally because the kids light up when she’s around. Any family would be lucky to have Karen as she’s trustworthy, caring, and brings the right balance of structure and fun.
