About Karen

Experience: 6 yrs

I'm looking for not a job, but to be part of a family that they can trust and count on to care for their children. I started working with kids when my grandkids were born. So much fun! When they started growing up on me, I had to find replacements. In my spare time, I like to do things with my church group and visit Florida as much as possible. I also love to create crafty things as gifts. Visits to the beach are a priority. One thing you should know about me is I'm reliable, trustworthy and patient. My skills include creating fun healthy meals. Reading and teaching to read. Teaching chores can be gratifying in many ways.

Karen nannied my first born until she was 18 months old. She treated my daughter like she was her grandchild, showered her with love, and always found ways to entertain her. I also appreciated coming home to folded laundry, a clean kitchen, and my house vacuumed which was not part of the job description! My daughter absolutely loved her! I also recently had her care for my 2 children- now 3 and 5 years old- while my husband and I went out of state for a weekend. While we were away, our youngest came down with the stomach flu and she cared for her, uncomplaining, for 2 sleepless nights. Karen went above and beyond the call of duty!
