About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi there, I am a 66-year-old Christian mother and grandmother and I have worked as a nanny for the past 17 years until moving back to TN to be near our daughter's and grandkids! I am looking here for a new part time position:) Previously I was a nanny for an infant and her older sister in Florida for 3 years and then 2 boys, newborn and 1 yr old for 3 1/2 years here before moving to California where I watched twins from 3 months old fulltime for 5 years until we moved back here to be near our kids, where we will be permanently. I was a daycare worker/assistant preschool teacher before that for 5 years, besides raising 3 beautiful daughters of my own. I am looking to care for and love your child/children. I adore kids and have 8 grandkids of my own which is why we moved here to be by them!

Karen was a godsend for us. She was a nanny for our daughter from 3 to 6 months of age, while we awaited a spot for her at daycare. Karen cared about our daughter as if she was her own. We had trouble with the baby sleeping one day and Karen showed up the next day saying she had done some research on it. She has a ton of experience with kids and babies, both as a caregiver and as a mom, but she is careful to defer to the parents wishes. She is always punctual and reliable. She is incredibly helpful and would do laundry or clean around the house while the baby was sleeping. She even helped us move into our new house! Over these few months, Karen has become like family and we miss seeing her on a regular basis, but will continue to trust our children with her for date nights, etc. Karen is an 11 out of 10.
