Hi & thanks for checking out my profile! I love working w/children, as their inquisitive attitudes & loads of energy make them a joy to be around. I am responsible, dependable, attentive, loving, patient & nurturing, but also fun & energetic! I have much passion in working w/ children. It is gratifying to help parents w/their most treasured gifts, which are their children. Being a nanny not only allows me to be surrounded by children which I thoroughly enjoy, but to use my skills & experience to help develop them into happy & healthy kids. I am currently looking for part/full-time nanny opportunities, as the family I currently nannied for just moved out of state for employment. In addition to the child care, I am also willing to do light housekeeping, laundry, organizing & errands for you. I have over 25 years of paid child care experience in taking care Read more of all ages of children from infants to teenagers. I also have two very bright teenagers (18 & 15) of my own with my husband of 22 years, so child-care is something that comes naturally to me. I'm 44 years old & a creative person who enjoys arts & crafts, sewing, biking, long walks & reading. I am also very pet friendly. Children are such an incredible gift! I strive to lead them w/ love, guidance, & nurture. I love being able to make an impact on another child's life & be someone that the parents can trust, know that their child is in safe hands & receive the best care possible, but still having fun! I am infant, child and adult CPR/AED & First Aide certified which is all up-to-date. I have my own vehicle, license, insurance & clean driving record. Excellent references will be provided. I am a professional woman who is educated & I would be an asset to helping you raise your child. If you need someone dependable, reliable, trustworthy, respectful, creative & caring that loves to be with children, please consider & contact me today! Thank you :)

Mary stared nannying for our son Beau when he was just 6 weeks old. We interviewed several Nannys and decided to hire Mary because we loved her approach to her job. She charted Beau's sleep, eating and activities enabling us to develop a schedule for him which was extremely helpful! Aside from Mary's natural gift for nurturing and caring for babies and children, I think her greatest asset is her positive attitude and bubbly personality. It has been an absolute joy having her in our home caring for our son. She has really made a difference in our family's lives. She really takes the mothers lead to make sure that her caregiving is consistent with the mothers which was really important to me. I can't say enough good things about Mary and whoever gets to have her care for their children is very lucky!

Mary watched our two little ones while I had an appointment. She provided excellent care did all sorts of fun activities with them. My daughter has already asked if she can come back to play. I am truly greatful to find someone to care for my children as I would if I were home.
