Hi, my name is Maryellen and I'm a teacher/nanny with many years of experience. I have two adult children. I was born and raised in upstate NY. I was passionate about childhood education early on. I have been a children's skating instructor, swim instructor for special needs and summer kids, preschool teacher, day care provider, house manager, nanny, autism caregiver, and babysitter for all ages. I also provide respite care for infants overnight. I love to see how a child's personality begins to form and enjoy witnessing their mental, emotional, and social development every single day. It's an honor and privilege to have an influence on their progress, no matter how large or small the steps. Your child's safety, happiness, and growth are my highest priorities. I take my position very seriously and know that I have a big influence on their childhood experiences throughout the time I am with them. It is such a nurturing and stimulating environment and I am proud to contribute to that.
Maryellen took excellent care of my daughter, and she is an unbelievably heartfelt person overall! She knew exactly how to interact with my daughter through pure intuition, and my daughter warned up to her right away. Maryellen has a great eye for details in children and adult personalities. Her kind words were so comforting, and she's a warm person that is extremely approachable. Thank you again Maryellen, I'll be in touch again soon!
