Experience: 10 yrs
I have had huge success in raising a beautiful, bright & wise daughter over the last 26 years. She graduated with a BSN from Biola University. She now is a registered nurse for Scrips in San Diego. (What can I say I'm a proud mama!) I gained wisdom for parenting-nanny techniques through child rearing professionals such as Dr. Sears, Dr. James Dobson, parenting classes and insight from parents who were, "Doing it right". I believe the best thing you can do for a child is lead by example, constantly encourage and affirm their strengths and positive behavior. I provide loving guidance at all times and see every moment as a learning opportunity. I am kindhearted, patient, fun and sensitive to the child's needs. I have an upbeat personality and I like to try to maintain a complaint free atmosphere. As a professional I will enter your home as a balanced human being with no drama, (unless I'm putting on a play for you with your children)! I will be able to regulate my emotional state and have the ability to keep my composure in stressful situations since your children could possibly pick up my patterns of behavior, my tone, my inflections and my language skills. I would love experiencing life with your children and their activities (this is my passion) and then filling you in with photos and stories of the great adventures that have happened through out the day! I would love to meet with your family to see if we are a good fit for each other. God's best to you!

She was great! I needed a baby sitter last minute. I contacted Karen on a Friday and needed her the following Monday and she was willing to start that soon. She was on time and very communicative during the day and had the my place cleaned with all toys put away. My son was happy with her. I highly recommend Karen.
