Meet Karyn

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Currently I am self employed working as an artist/musician and jewelry maker. I am 38 and my childcare experience has included after school care for 2-3 children, preparing dinner/ snacks. I also have experience watching after young nieces, nephews and cousins.  I believe good childcare should be multifaceted, and include a range of activities that engage and promote learning and growth.  I enjoy incorporating music into activities, as teaching tool, but also as means of inviting self expression.  Additionally I enjoy arts and crafts,  story time, trips to the park, and simply just being active outside. I have a fairly flexible schedule, and am willing to accommodate anyone if I am available. So don't hesitate to contact me! Thanks!
