A twist on the Office for Mac/Mavericks crashing problem - profiles

I seem to have a variation of the problem with Office for Mac 2011 crashing all the time following an OS X Mavericks update. I have two profiles set up on my MacBook Pro (early 2011) - one for me and one for my kids. Office seems to work fine on my profile, but it crashes constantly without actually opening the programs on my kids' profile. Anytime I try to open one of the programs, it immediately crashes and opens the Microsoft Error Reporting window. I have already tried repairing disc permissions, creating an entirely new profile (worked initially, then starting doing crashing again), and completely (completely, not just dragging and dropping) removing Office for Mac and reinstalling it. I'm at my wits end and would really appreciate some help.
