Booked by 1 family in Orange, NJ

Hi! My name is Karolynne born and raised in Jersey City with a Honduran background. I am fluent in both english and spanish. Offering services for Childcare, Senior care and household services. With children I enjoy many activities and keeping them busy and entertained but also assist them in learning while having fun and being safe. I love to get creative with activities during the childcare. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, assisting with homework and going to the park. I tutored during my high school and college years. I love cooking and baking and a hobby is trying new recipes. For Senior Care I can provide driving and cooking assistance. I enjoy senior care because I love long conversations and keeping seniors company. For Household Services, I can cook, assist with cleaning and laundry. I have a very bubbly personality and enjoy being around children and people!

β€œKarolynne was a God send on late notice (less than 24 hours!) to provide childcare assistance to my husband with our 4 year old and 1.5 year old as we were in town (and I was out for 2 days) at a conference. The kids warmed up to her almost immediately including our 1.5 year old who is typically shy, and she was a dream to work with - going the extra mile to tidy up when my husband was prepping food or when she had a free moment. With her help we were able to get the kids out to a nearby playground and spend the days with enriching activities. We could not ask for someone better and wished we could bring her back home with us to be our permanent nanny. We are so grateful to have found her and will be keeping in touch for future visits!”
