Hi there! I am an 26-year-old full of energy experienced fun-loving babysitter who is available full time during the week. I love taking the kids outside and doing some fun activities. I love dancing and art. Im obsessed with food and cooking some crazy foods so they can try it and we can have a good time during the day. The lasts kids I used to take care of used to call me as the best babysitter ever and it made me feel like I was doing a great job

Karen is so lovely! She came to help me out for a few hours while staying at the flamingo resort. My little one ended up falling asleep while nursing before I left. To help me transition her to bed, Karen intuitively went to work closing the blinds, during on the sound machine, clearing the bed, etc. it was so lovely to just have someone who got it and knew what to do to help without being asked. She was so patient and had a myriad. Of tricks to help distract my nearly two year old while I was away. I highly recommend Karen!
