I am an elementary school counselor! I have my masters in school counseling and I have the summers off. I have two teenagers of my own, a son and a daughter. I believe in reading to children, playing, working puzzles, exercise and exploring. I believe I can care for and nurture children in a way that parents will greatly appreciate. I was a nanny for a year between my bachelor's degree and completing master's degree at University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. I am a runner and love fitness. I also love meeting new people and helping others pursue their goals. My family owns a dog, Copper. He is a lab-boxer-pit mix. Cooper is definitely part of our family and we make sure he gets to swim or stretch his legs at our local dog park every day. I am CPR certified (because I help coach volleyball), and CPI certified and Read more am trained in Youth Mental Health First Aid.

She's amazing. So respectful, our baby boy loves her. I enjoy the fact that we share the same beliefs with reading to children while they're young and babies avoiding eye contact with t.v screens. She's very reliable and super kind.

We hired Mary to watch our 1 year old son while we attended a wedding. She was wonderful. She was great with Oliver and sent us updates throughout the evening. She was easy to work with and kept in regular communication with us prior to meeting. We really enjoyed working with her. This was our first time hiring a sitter and she made my husband and myself feel very comfortable that our son was in capable hands.
