About Carena
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have 17 yrs specialized in caring for newborns, twins from 0 days old, to school age children, early teens, and special needs. I like to keep the children busy by providing learning and fun activities such as reading books, puzzles, board games, having outdoor activities like swimming, basketball, soccer, bike rides, going to parks, having fun outings, etc. When it comes to newborns age appropriate activities, stimulation, tummy time, nurture, comfort. I like to keep the baby close to home for the first 3 months. I feel like it's very important to keep them on a routine schedule based on the family philosophy of raising their child. Also, can provide the parent with a daily log of the Child's day, picture text keep them updated. I feel like communication is super important on both ends. I have a great driving record and really great references.. will also provide a copy of my background check. All clear was :) CPR, First Aid & AED Certified!

We were so fortunate to have had the pleasure of working with Carena. She was a nanny for our son from about 3 months to just over 2 years! She is prompt, helped develop and keep us all on a schedule, and loved our son like he was one of her own. As a first time mom, I was completely overwhelmed with what to do (and we weathered the pandemic together!) and Carena was always there to help with confidence and care. We miss her dearly - any family would be lucky to have her!
