About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

As a childcare provider with a decade of experience, I am passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My patient and creative nature allows me to engage children in imaginative play, while my calm and friendly demeanor puts them at ease. I believe in open communication with parents and provide daily written reports, verbal updates at pickup, and regular text or phone call updates. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and ensuring a safe and structured environment for the children in my care. From outdoor sports to educational games, I enjoy a variety of activities that promote physical, mental, and emotional development. With a CPR Training certification and a willingness to assist with cooking, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision, I strive to provide comprehensive support to families. My fluency in both English and Portuguese allows me to cater to a diverse range of families.

Karen was great! She was calm and knowledgeable, putting us at ease. Our daughter was in great spirits when we returned. We will definitely be hiring Karen again.
