I love working with children because their curiosity and creativity inspire me. Helping them learn and grow brings me immense joy, and I am committed to making a positive impact on their lives through nurturing and educational activities. Experience: I have over 6 years of experience caring for children of various ages. I have worked as a nurse in Mexico for a big Hospital in the City and multiple families and volunteered at children's centers. My background includes Nursing College, CPR and first aid certification. My personalized approach and ability to connect with each child set me apart. I tailor my care to suit each child's unique needs and interests.

Karen has been an amazing sitter for our kids. We have a 4 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. We have called her several times now. She always has follow their schedule for dinner time or sleeping whenever she has had to do it. She plays a lot with them and talk them really nicely. Me and my husband highly recommend her, specially because we see that our kids are happy every time she’s gonna take care of them.

Karen has taken care of my two kids several times, and we all love her. I have an 8-year-old boy who isn’t too difficult to care for, but he feels very safe and confident around Karen, which makes things easier for me. My toddler, on the other hand, needs more attention and is very active, but Karen is fantastic at engaging with him and is very calm and loving. What gives me the most peace of mind is knowing that she’s a nurse! What a pleasure to work with her :)

Karen S.'s reply

Thank you so much for your kind words! It is always a pleasure to care for your children. I am so glad that they feel safe and happy under my care. I'm truly grateful for the opportunity to be a part of your family's life and also appreciate the trust you had in me. I look forward to many more adventures together!
