About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am an adoptive parent of four adult children with over 40 years of experience caring for children of all ages. My sons have special needs, so I am well versed in providing care for kids with different abilities. My passion lies in nurturing growth and development, and I strive to make a positive impact on children by connecting with them where they are at. I am patient and calm as well as creative and imagin ative. I enjoy playing games with the children, including educational games that promote learning and development, classic board games and puzzles, and involving them with fun crafts and activities. I believe in effective communication with parents and an very comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a safe and structured environment for the children in my care. I have a car and am comfortable with pets.
