Karina is a great care provider. She recently cared for my 5 year old daughter when my husband and I went out for a date night. She was very sweet with my daughter and did a great job of connecting with her quickly. She also sent me updates and even a photo of my daughter throughout the evening, which made me feel more at ease. I would definitely recommend her!
