Meet Karen

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am a 65 year young mother of three with three grandchildren. I have raised three children alone for 35 years and have been caring for my grandchildren ,ages 13 and 9 years old. I worked part time as a substitute teacher and aftercare giver for elementary school children. I am first aid and CPR certified. I chose the caregiving profession not only to sustain life but to shape and mold it. I love my job because a child is a blank page in a book, and we as adults have the chance to write on those pages.So why not write something with love and something that will have a positive effect on that child. I'm good at my job because I do everything with love reguardless of who or whose the child. A child is like a flower, give it what it needs and it will turn into something Read more beautiful for all the world to see. Neglect it and it dies
