About Karin

I am a career childcare specialist with over 18 years of professional nanny experience, backed by a strong foundation as a former Labor and Delivery Registered Nurse. My medical background gives me a calm, expert edge and a deep understanding of infant health, safety, and development. This specialized training has allowed me to excel in high-profile, high-level care for newborns, infants, toddlers, and multiples—including the precise, sensitive care required for micro-preemie twins. ​Over nearly two decades in the field, my experience spans the entire spectrum of early childhood development. I am highly experienced in establishing healthy sleep and feed schedules, successfully sleep training, introducing solids, and navigating complex toddler milestones like potty training and emotional regulation. I specialize in managing the entire "nursery world," which includes organizing children's spaces, managing transitions as they grow, and preparing little ones socially and cognitively for preschool. I pride myself on building long-term, trusted partnerships with busy parents, seamlessly managing daily logistics and household coordination so the entire home runs smoothly. ​My daily childcare philosophy centers heavily on learning through play. Rather than static babysitting, I intentionally structure our days around interactive, age-appropriate developmental activities. Reading is an absolute pillar of my routine, as I place a high value on early literacy, vocabulary building, and language engagement from day one. ​Outside of my professional life, I live in the greater Houston area with my husband, Raymond. I enjoy a relaxing mix of outdoor activities like camping and fishing, solving word puzzles, listening to historical romance audiobooks, and traveling. I look forward to bringing my unique blend of clinical intuition, decades of deep caregiving experience, and a genuine love for early childhood development to a wonderful new family.
