About Karlene

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been a nanny for 16 years now with my first nanny position being with my 1-month-old nephew . Since the I have worked with kids in the age ranges of 1 month-16 years, . Childcare has always been a passion of mine as I taught and watched my nephew when I first started out my nanny journey. In my spare time I enjoy cooking, baking, hiking, swimming and camping, sports staying active and healthy. I love doing arts and crafts with the kids when not in school, doing homework or other after school activities that I have also cover such as soccer, swimming, baseball, football etc.

Our family worked with Karlene for three months, caring for our son from approximately 7 to 10 months old. During that time, she was excellent with him—highly attentive, calm, playful, patient, and nurturing. I felt completely comfortable leaving our son fully in her care. Karlene was especially thoughtful around feeding and daily routines. She regularly prepared new, healthy foods for our son, which he loved, and was always open to our feedback as his needs evolved. She adapted easily when requirements or schedules changed and worked collaboratively with us as parents. Beyond childcare, Karlene was extremely proactive around the home. She created and executed a weekly meal plan, handled grocery shopping from start to finish, cooked dinners nightly, and often anticipated household needs without prompting—whether restocking groceries, preparing for visiting family, or deep-cleaning appliances when needed. Karlene was consistently punctual, dependable, and easy to communicate with. I would absolutely recommend her to other families, especially those with infants or first-time parents looking for a reliable, caring, and very knowledgable nanny.
