About Karen

I'm a Louisiana native from a long line of Creole nannies, nurses, and caregivers. My mother has provided services to the same family for over 45 years and as a teenager I would observe and learn the skills of healing the body and soul through service. I started nursing school in the 1970s, but after becoming a mother being a parent became my priority. I'm most proud of having raised a daughter who is a medical doctor and a son who is a 2nd year law school student. I have over 30 years experience in home health care with stellar referrals.
