Marilyn's Bio

I love children and spending time with them. It is important to be creative, so I use my imagination to find different things to interest the kids, such as outside play, crafts, simple cooking and reading. I find it important not to be in front of the TV all day. I currently work with children at the Y giving swim lessons.
I also don't mind doing some cooking to help out.

Melissa H. says:
Marilyn has been coming to watch my baby boy for about 3 months. He is now 8 months old and I do not entrust his well-being with anyone but family or Marilyn! She has always done as I ask by interacting with Benjamin and not just sitting him in his exersaucer or jumper. I feel that I can trust Marilyn with my most precious possession.

Alwanda H. says:
Marilyn was efficient and on time to work, though did not follow through with initial contract. Left us without sitter in middle of week with only a 3 day notice when we asked upon contract for two weeks. My husband and I both work full time and this was handled very inappropriately and unprofessional.

Marilyn N. responds:
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. I enjoyed working with Ethan, he is such a sweet little guy, who loves to have fun.
After reviewing the contract, there is nothing on there about giving a notice, there is however asking for time to be given when you are going to be sick. I believe I was there for 3 days prior to leaving that I was not feeling well so not to leave you hanging. I then...

Marilyn has helped us several times with our autistic teenager. She is extremely flexible and patient and does a great job with him. I would recommend her to anybody looking for an excellent caregiver.

Marilyn N. responds:
Thank you, Dallas, your family is so sweet. I enjoy speaking with them and always look forward to helping out. I'll see them next week and have a safe trip. Marilyn
Jennifer K. says:
Marilyn has come twice so far, and I plan to continue using her part-time a few hours a week. She knows sign language which is great, since we use baby signs in our house. I have 17 month old twins (one with developmental delays) and an almost 4 year old. She has handled all 3 children with ease, and they seem to love her. I work from home, and it's awesome to hear my kids laughing outside while I'm inside... More

Thank you Jen, I love your children and look forward to seeing you and the children again soon. I have found a recipe for brownies that are gluten free and also we can use egg replacement, they are made out of spinach. Thank you again for the great review. Marilyn
