About Karen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have 2 wonderful boys. One is out of the house in the Navy and the other is busy with high school! I have been a full time mom for over 20 years and have a lot of love to share! I started babysitting when I was 13 years old. I am CPR/AED/Choking and First Aid certified by the Red Cross for adults and pediatrics. I volunteered many years in the class room and library. I have my TEFL and taught ESL. I strongly believe in engaging (mostly through educational play/reading) children at their level to get them started as a critical thinker. My primary concern is the safety of your child! My 2nd concern is the happiness of your child. If I have time I will take care of things related to the baby, for example, prepare all food for child, clean bottles, high chairs, load dishwasher, do baby laundry. But, I do not do general household cleaning/maid service . I really LOVE infants and young children and I hope you will give me a chance to help you out.

Our family absolutely LOVES Karen. She is honest, caring, and always puts my son first. Her care is top-notch and we likely would not trust anyone else the same way we do Karen. We hope she is with us for a long time to come.
