My name is Mary and I have been a nanny for four local families over the last 15 years. I have raised two beautiful children given to me through the gift of adoption. Now that joy is multiplied by my two precious granddaughters. While I am mature in age, my enthusiasm and energy parallels my younger peers. I have found that extensive reading, age appropriate creative play, music, dance, art and crafts inspire verbal skills, confidence and enthusiasm for their world. I am very affectionate and love hugging, rocking and holding. I fall in love with the infants/children for whom I care and am still close to the families I served as a caregiver. I am now certified in Adult and Pediatric CPR, First Aid and use of an AED (defibrilator) Please consider reaching out to me so that you may assess my character and qualifications. Thank you.
