Howdy! My name is Karina Martinez and I enjoy working with kiddos! My professional history focuses on working with children from all ages. As a former educator, I worked with upper elementary students with a variety of different needs. I am also a certified bilingual teacher. Prior to teaching, I worked as a college advisor with high school students. I currently work in higher education assisting prospective students in the college admissions process. In college, I was a member of Project Sunshine, an organization that provides free events for children with disabilities and their siblings. I enjoyed helping them with their homework, taking them to the park, and walking around the store to look at things they were interested in. I am typically pretty full of energy and am excited to provide age-appropriate play and guidance. I am more than happy to meet you to ensure we are the right Read more fit. 😊

Karina is very engaged and present with children. She is attentive to their needs and allows them a safe place to be seen and heard. Something I love about Karina is she keeps the kids active mentally and physically so they’re doing hand aren’t just sitting in front of a screen. She’s a great communicator and is always asking how she can improve and addresses every need. I never question the safety of my children when they’re with her. My family loves Karina!
