About Karina

Experience: 9 yrs

While working at a preschool for 8 years as a support teacher and lead teacher, I have found my niche and passion. In working with children I have learned so much about patience, redirecting behavior, engaging lessons and overall having fun while providing a loving, nurturing and safe environment for the little ones to learn and grow. I believe structure is important and I always encourage my little ones to try new things even if it is challenging. I am always ready to offer my support and guidance and encouragement, especially when the little ones are navigating big feelings. I have loved my time as a teacher, and I have loved every single connection I have made with the parents and students. Facing these past few years of pandemic with a full class has been challenging and I am ready for a change. I am ready to become a part of the team and to make meaningful connections with an amazing new family.

Karina has watched our children for years. We are self-proclaimed helicopter parents and trust very little people with our lambs! She has cared for them in both the classroom setting (20+ kids) and individually as a nighttime / weekend sitter. No matter the setting, she shows up 100% herself. Which is consistent in her expectations, communicative and clear with needs or updates, and most importantly fun loving with the kids. She did (without asking!) light housekeeping (toys picked up, dishes, etc) during the sitter experiences which was unexpected, but highly appreciated. We intend to continue to partner with her on our childcare needs!
