About Karen
Experience: 20 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
As a caregiver with two decades of experience, I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and making a positive impact on their lives. My calm and creative personality allows me to provide a nurturing environment for up to four children, aged 8 weeks through school aged. I value open communication, following the parents' preferred method, and I'm comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by the parents. My favorite games to play with children include outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. With some college education under my belt, I have completed coursework in early child development, as well as First Aid and CPR training. I'm happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. As a caregiver, my goal is to support families and provide a reliable, nurturing environment for children to thrive.

Karen took care of our twins for 3 years, starting when they were 6 months old. She had such an incredible impact on their upbringing and we were so lucky to have had her as long as we did. She was incredibly reliable, she always arrived early and she always left our house cleaner than it was when she got there. The biggest thing for us, especially as the kids got older, was that she planned the most thoughtful age-appropriate activities. She would plan elaborate crafts, would do tons of different worksheets with them (that she found and brought herself), would plan all different recipes to cook with them, and so many other things. She also took them out to the library, playground, and many other places. I honestly cannot say good things. We love (and miss!) Karen and I can assure you your child(ren) would be in incredible hands.
