About Karise

I love working with children and helping families feel supported. I bring over 25 years of caregiving experience, including 10+ years supporting trauma victims, special needs, and children with diverse behavioral, emotional, and developmental needs. I also served as a legal guardian and foster mom for one year. Families often describe me as a modern Mary Poppins or a party in a box because I bring creativity, joy, structure, and fun into the home through dance, Zumba, art, crafts, journaling, fitness, homework help, and hands-on activities. I can also assist with meal prep, light housekeeping, laundry, organizing, bedtime routines, swimming supervision, and companionship. I also offer senior care and household support. My goal is to make life easier, bring peace to the home, and help every child or loved one feel safe, valued, and cared for.
