About Karen
Experience: 5 yrs
Hello families! I'm Karen, a 27-year-old nanny in Alexandria. I chose this career because I love supporting children's curiosity, emotional growth, and confidence as they discover the world. I'm patient, compassionate, and focused on creating a calm, loving environment where every child feels safe, happy, and encouraged in each milestone. With over 5 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, I enjoy planning fun, learning-based activities like arts & crafts, outdoor play, and early-learning moments tailored to each stage. I also love introducing simple Spanish words like "gracias" and "por favor" to spark interest in a new language and culture. I'm fluent in English and Spanish, CPR and First Aid certified for infants and children, and I enjoy cooking and baking as part of daily routines. I value strong communication with parents and always treat every child with patience, warmth, and genuine care-becoming a supportive part of the family team.
Most recent review
Karen has been such a blessing for our family. She’s warm, patient, and genuinely cares about the little ones. My child lights up every time she arrives, which says everything. She communicates well, is always on time, and goes above and beyond without being asked!!
