Karinna is a gem. She has been very professional, caring and patient with our toddler. Our daughter had an injury and Karinna has been very empathetic, careful and making sure she was safe. She also made sure meals were on time and follow her routine to allow her to nap on time. We were very stressed after a bad experience with a prior sitter, but Karinna has made everything easy and comfortable.
She was amazing. The minute she walked into our home, she put her phone away and got right to work. My kids were initially shy but quickly warmed up to her, and they had a fantastic time. She was attentive, nurturing, and very loving to them. She took her time to play with them and talk with them, and they loved every minute of their time with her. We will be hiring her again. She is completely worth every penny and more. Thank you so much.
I cannot recommend Karinna enough ! She came to my rescue at a time when my nanny had to take a break on a very short notice. Karinna seamlessly fit into our home and immediately forged a lovely bond with my 5 month old daughter. I was initially apprehensive since my lil one was very small and was a fussy feeder. Karinna has so much experience and a ‘never give up’ attitude that enabled her to take control of the situation in no time. Within a day she went from being a new nanny to someone who could handle my lil one independently. Best thing about Karinna is she proactively suggests so many improvements to make both the baby’s and mommy’s life easy. Right from helping to start solids, to setting a easy schedule to grooming the baby - Karinna was there every step of the way. In hindsight,I was so glad to have had Karinna’s guidance for my baby. My life changed for the best in such a short time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to take care of a new born to a toddler and even further.
Karinna joined us when our baby boy was 2,5 months old and stayed until he was 6 months (because we had to leave). She was always very warm, kind, sweet, loving and patient with him. He loves her so much!
We will miss Karinna and would definitely hire her with no hesitation. Of course, we recommend her 150%. She is competent, experienced and respected our routines. She helped us improve in all areas, from baby sleep, feeding to development. We are first time parents and highly appreciated her competent guidance.
Thank you Karinna for everything, for loving our baby and for letting him love you so much.
Karinna watched our 4-yr-old son so that my husband and I could have a much needed date night. Karinna has a great energy about her and knows exactly how to engage a toddler. This was her first time sitting for us, and we would definitely use her again.
Karinna did a great job with my boys! I have two boys- 3.5 and 2 years old. She was timely, helpful, professional and a great communicator. Reliable, and sent frequent pictures and updates about the kids which was really helpful! I would definitely recommend her, she did a great job!
Karinna watched our 11 month-old for a few days when our normal caregiver wasn't available. She did a great job adjusting to the routine and our daughter liked her right away. We felt comfortable with her approach and professionalism.
Karinna came to watch our very active 14 month old twins on very short notice (less than 24 hours). This was her first time sitting for us. She arrived on time, with her own car, and immediately started playing with our son and daughter. She had no issues giving them lunch and snacks, put them down for their nap, and played with them all day.
Our daughter, who sometimes is hesitant around new people, was immediately fond of Karinna. After 6 hours, we came home to happy and well cared for twins. She had cleaned up their toys and any messes from lunch/snacks. We will definitely have her back to watch the kids again.
