Hello. My name is Karen. I have been a nanny, caregiver and nursery school teacher! :) I would be happy to help care for your children in your absence. I am a very active, dependable and flexible person. I am CPR and first aid trained. I also have attended numerous child development workshops for the N.Y.S. curriculum for the 4 year old program in New York State. I have cared for children of all ages and stages my entire adult life. I can provide outstanding references. I can pick your child up from school or daycare and attend to their needs. I love being outside being active, going to parks, swimming, playing ball, especially taking walks. I enjoy doing crafts with kids or playing legos, or we can make playdough together or play a board game. Whatever your children interests are I will help inspire them. As children get older I Read more keep a watchful on them and let them do their thing, I will monitor video and computer time. Their homework is finished and I can prepare a simple dinner for your children. I treat each and every child as an individual and I try to do my best each and every day. I have three successful adult sons who I love dearly. I also love caring for animals. I would like to be able to have the opportunity to watch and care for your family. Thank you.

Karen applied to a job I had posted at $15/hr but was unwilling to accept the rate. She informed me she would need a minimum of $20/hr. Waste of my time!

Karen cared for our 2 year old boy/girl twins for nearly a year and our kids couldn't have loved her more. As full time working parents it was a relief to know that our kids were safe and well cared for. We really appreciated that Karen has extensive experience with early childhood education as well as knowledge of what to do in an emergency situation. It also helped to know she raised 3 boys of her own! I'm happy to be contacted should you be considering Karen as your caregiver. Joy
