About Mary

As a former certified early childhood and elementary teacher, as well as a mom of three children, I bring to the table a wide variety of skills and knowledge when it comes to child care. I've been blessed to be at home to raise all three of our children and as they have aged, I've gradually re-entered the working world as a senior companion caregiver over the past six years, which I have loved. However, I miss my early childhood/elementary work and look forward to working with families to support the positive development and happiness of their children through childcare. Beyond the teaching skills I developed during my 10 year career in education, I also bring my nurturing instinct as well as patience, understanding, gentleness, and a practical, child-centered approach to a child's world. My love for reading, literacy development and a hands-on approach to learning are all skills that I feel benefit the children in my care.
