Experience: 8 yrs
My name is Karen , and I'm a dedicated and nurturing nanny with over eight years of full-time childcare experience. I worked with a family in Reseda, CA, beginning in 2017 when I was hired to care for their 1-year-old child. By the end of my time with them in 2024, the children were 8 months, 5 years, and 8 years old. I have also worked with a family in Playa Vista, caring for their infant until their recent transition into daycare. My responsibilities included bottle feeding, diaper changes, soothing techniques, and nap schedules for infants, along with school drop-offs, homework help, and engaging activities for the older children. I also handled personal assistant duties, including managing the kids schedules. I am CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, bilingual in English and Spanish, and I own a reliable car with a clean driving record. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and proactive, with the ability to adapt easily to each household's unique needs.
Karen has been a wonderful caregiver to our child this year, including part of the time in a nannyshare arrangement. She consistently created a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment, engaging our child with play, books, songs, walks, and creative activities. Our child adored her and always lit up when she arrived, often showing us new skills learned during the day. Karen’s childcare skills are outstanding, and she handled everything from meals and diapering to teaching words and guiding bedtime routines with patience, warmth, and attentiveness. Beyond childcare, Karen demonstrated initiative and was proactive by helping with light household chores, cleaning, and meal prep. She handled caring for two infants with ease during the nannyshare, showing excellent multitasking abilities. We found her to be reliable, trustworthy, punctual, and communicative, always respecting our routines and preferences. Having worked with several nannies before, Karen stands out as exceptional, bringing passion and dedication to her role every day. Our family will truly miss her, and we give her our strongest recommendation. We are happy to do a reference call if you are considering Karen for your family!
