About Mary

Experience: 10 yrs

With 10 yrs experience as a caregiver for babies-10 yr olds, I am passionate about fostering growth through consistency, creativity, mental stimulation, physical activity and gentle guidance. I believe supporting families through dependable childcare is vital. I have been in charge of as many as 5 kids, but prefer caring for 2-3 children ages 0-11. I'm detail oriented & give real-time updates w/ apps like Baby Connect, ensuring you're always informed about your children's day. I am comfortable with following parental rule structure, but please be aware I will not use corporal punishment. From hide-and-seek, to sports and educational apps, I love playing all sorts of games, especially those encouraging learning & imagination. I am CPR & First Aid certified and also have a car. Pets are a bonus! I speak English, some Spanish, baby ASL, a bit of French, German, Tagalog & Navajo. I look forward to working with your family to create a nurturing environment where your children can thrive.

Mary is an excellent caregiver, and I highly recommend her for your childcare needs. She is reliable and trustworthy. I so appreciated how much I could depend on her to show up every day and provide loving care for my child. She was hands on and interactive. I didn't worry that she was spending her time on her phone all day instead of providing attention to my child. She is professional in her role while providing loving care. She is genuinely a caring person and so pleasant to work with, which made our experience of leaving our child in someone else's care easier. Mary hasn't been our nanny for several years now, but my daughter still has a picture of her in her room, and that says a lot. We all fondly remember her.
