About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! My name is Karen and I have a knack for the little ones. I'm a professional actress with tons of children's theater experience. I love to sing, dance, and be silly! I'm very patient, caring, and absolutely love kids and babies. I taught kindergarten for four years in Hong Kong and now I'm a substitute teacher. Thank you for taking the time to read and consider, I look forward to potentially helping your family out!

Our 4 year old, who is normally very resistant, warmed right up to Karen in just a few minutes. She's a great communicator with both kiddo and parents, and kept the house tidy during her stay. We'll definitely have her back again!
