About Mari

Experience: 8 yrs

I am an experienced and passionate caretaker. I model my care after The Montessori Method, prioritizing learning through play and exploration of our senses. I am very hands on and I love to work with families to improve their children's learning, manners, natural skills, and confidence. I am a doula as well. I'd describe my personality as caring, intuitive, and joyous I like working with kids because I love to see the development of a little human. I love to see them explore and learn and discover small things that we take for granted everyday I started working with kids when I was 5 years old! I always was the cousin hauling around the babies, making bottles, and even cooking! In my spare time, I like to I make and perform music with my partner. I educate and assist women in giving birth and newborn care. I do not tolerate children who are out of control. If your neurotypical child has no regard for the other humans around them, I am not the caretaker for your family.

Mari is the absolute best. She nannied for our kids (early elementary aged) for a couple years & only stopped because she moved out of state. She was always on time, kept us updated on daily activities, & we never worried when she was with them. She is so patient when helping the kids with school work, kept them on task when it was time to pickup, & they spent lots of time exploring outdoors. Our whole family adores her. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat & recommend her without hesitation
