Hi my name is Kari. I love kids. I have lots of experience. I've been a Nanny for years, mostly with babies and toddlers. I'm clean and organized. I love playing board games, card games and love to 
Play outdoor sports with kids. I have tons of energy. I also cook and clean. You won't be disappointed. Kids love me.
**I am fully vaccinated(Covid19-Flu-TB), First Aid and CPR certified in infant-child-adult. State licensed. I am also certified by Trustline. Clean driving record. I have references if needed too.

She was wonderful with our baby.  She knew how to take care of her and we felt so safe leaving our daughter with Kari.  She clearly knows what she's doing!

Kari helped us with our 2.5 year old son for the past 4 months and she quickly became like family to us. She is extremely thoughtful, trustworthy and fun with a heart of gold. She took care of our son, our home and even us. Always made sure everyone around her was happy. If you are lucky to get Kari, you will soon see how special she is. Our family misses her already and look forward to working with her again. 

My husband and I hired Kari to care to take care of our 3-month-old daughter for a month while we were in Palm Springs. She was extremely punctual, caring, trustworthy & clean!!! Kari was fabulous and we can’t recommend her enough. Kari went above and beyond in every aspect. Not only was she wonderful with our daughter, but she also always kept herself busy around the house and help in any way she could. She really made out trip a much more enjoyable experience by having her there. We will definitely be utilizing Kari anytime we are in the Palm Springs, CA area. 

Kari helped us out in a pinch when a different sitter fell through. She was incredible with our 10 month old. She was interactive and playful with him. She kept in great communication with us and made us feel comfortable while we were attending our conference events. Would highly recommend her!

I'd give Kari 10 stars if I could!!! We were in Rancho Mirage for a wedding where we don't know anyone local and so we're a little worried about having someone watch our kids for just one night when we were unable to go through our normal hiring and meeting process with, but Kari did a video meeting with us to make sure it was a good fit, and it was so quickly clear that she is great with kids. After we got off the video call my 4 year old daughter cried because she wanted to talk more with her "new friend!" Kari was punctual, and followed our strict directions of not going outside at all as we are unfamiliar with the area, and our backyard had a pool which I was a little paranoid about the kids falling into. She was willing to also let out and feed our dog, which we forgot to mention until the last minute. She scored major extra points with us bringing along a first aid kit and lots of toys and activities for the kids to play with and KEEP!  My daughter said "bye mama" to me twice before it was actually time for me to leave - clearly comfortable and ready to play with Kari all night! And, my 1 year old son didn't cry at all! Kari sent us pictures and videos of the kids periodically through the night which was really nice. We didn't get back until after midnight, and that was no problem for her. I couldn't recommend Kari more and wish she lived in our area so we could use her as our regular babysitter!!

We were out on a family retreat vacation for a few nights in Palm Desert and Kari watched my 9 and 2 year old for a date night-and day event. My kids loved her! My daughter asked if she could come back again 3x! It's a good sign when kids ask for their sitter to come back ! Coming from an educational background (K-12th and preschool teacher) I was rather picky finding a good fit. I was very pleased with her. She even brings a bag of toys which I love. Thank you Kari, hope to see you again real soon!

Developed great relationship with our son quickly. Positive, excited and warm. Our 3.5 yr old loved his time with her.

My toddler LOVED Kari. They immediately hit it off and he actually cried when she left. I would highly recommend her - she is caring, positive, and genuinely loves what she does.

Kari watched our 3 y/o and 4 m/o girls for two nights during a visit to Indio. She arrived early and was immediately engaged with the girls. Knowing we were at a vacation rental, she brought games and crafts for our toddler. She easily handled both bedtime routines and we arrived back to find everything in good order. Our 3 y/o said she loved her and couldn't wait to play with her again. Would 100% work with her again the next time we are visiting the area.

Kari was such a delight to have watching our almost 2 year old daughter. We were very nervous leaving her for the first time and Kari made us feel at ease! Our daughter loved her and was very content with her! She is responsible, caring, honest and punctual. She offered great advice based on her experience regarding the development of my toddler. She made sure our daughter stayed on schedule and stuck to her routine. She was very professional and provided updates upon our return. I would strongly recommend Kari she is an amazing caregiver who will care for your children like they are family! We are looking forward to using her again soon!

Kari was great with my newborn daughter. In November my husband and I were invited to a wedding out of town when our daughter was 2 months old. Kari watched our daughter and sent continuous updates throughout the evening. She really put my mind at peace and I was able to enjoy my time away from my baby (rare). My baby is now 6 months old and has formed a bond with Kari. I highly recommend her.

 She was the best nanny our family ever had. She played and read to the kids. She is very energetic and a happy person.  She kept our house very clean and even made dinner for the kids. If you get a chance I would definitely hire her. She also is CPR certified and first aid.  You can tell from the moment you meet her, that she loves kids and loves her job. 

Very compassionate/caring and always pays attention to details.
