About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing a child's growth through play and patience has been my professional focus for the past 10 years. My journey as a caregiver is fueled by a genuine desire to make a positive impact on young lives while providing families with reliable, dependable, consistent support. I am a patient and compassionate person who thrives when engaging children in outdoor sports, educational games, crafts or imaginative puzzles. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry and possibly carpooling. I prioritize your preferred communication method to share updates about your child's day. I look forward to the possibility of becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life. I do also have Christian values. Some parents may find that important. The saying, "If you love your job you'll never work a day in your life" is how I look at my days with your children.

Karen was our full-time nanny for our three boys for 2 years until our youngest son went to full day Kindergarten. Thereafter, she would babysit for our family several times a year. Karen, is the most genuinely kind and caring person. Our boys loved her!! She was incredibly reliable, always on time, and went above and beyond. As examples, she would bring the boys their favorite cookies, made them banana bread because she knew they loved it, and cleaned my entire kitchen frequently (not part of her job). We had several nannies and hands down she was the best!!! As a working mother, I dreaded the hiring process as it was so stressful deciding to leave your babies in a complete stranger’s care and I can easily say that hiring Karen will be one of your best decisions! She will love your children as her own and be part of your family.
