About Mary

Experience: 3 yrs

I have just moved up to Portsmouth after living in Lakeland, Florida for two years and being employed as a part-time Adjunct at Polk State College teaching American and World History as well as a nanny for two middle school aged girls. Before Florida, I lived in Edinburgh, UK and earned a MSc in Renaissance and Early Modern Studies from the University of Edinburgh while working as a nanny for a wonderful family with a daughter, 6 and a son, 8. Working with kids has always been a big part of my life and in addition to my time working as a nanny I have also worked as a camp counselor at a Resident camp, a tutor and have run many events for younger girls through Girl Scouting. I am currently searching for full or part-time work over the upcoming summer (to begin June 12th or later) and would welcome any inquiries. Thanks for your time!

Mary is amazing! Our family loves her, and we are sad to see her move from FL to NH in June. She promptly picks up our daughters (ages 10 and 12) after school and watches them in our home M - F. She is well educated, and is an excellent tutor when they need help with math, writing, or social studies. Mary is a great cook and regularly makes our favorites such as chicken Marsala and roasted cauliflower. She does light housekeeping including loading the dishwasher and folding clothes. On school holidays, she offers to drive our girls to the library or park, and often brings materials for crafts they enjoy. We pay her more than we have any previous babysitters, but she is well worth it! Our kids are smart, but Mary's support allows them to maintain straight A's. She asks questions to determine the needs of the family, then enthusiastically makes it her mission to assist with those needs. Prospective employers are welcome to contact me with any questions.
