I have always believed in stating "who I am", over "what I do". I started childcare as a young teenager. Of course, I continued on to have three boys of my own. I was a young mom in my early 20's, when my first son arrived. This also started my varied career in medicine. While preparing for my firstborn, I became a "Doula". This was invaluable education for myself, and hundreds of other families I was honored to assist. Along with my son, I also added income with watching the children of many friends and family. As my sons grew, and the word "mommy became "mom", I decided to put myself through college. My initial intention was to take nursing. My prerequisites involved early childhood, human lifespan, psychology, and more. In addition, I took a full semester EMT course. Infant, child, and adult CPR, and first Aide were all included. I fell in love with the work. This training, past experiences, love, and nurturing are what I can offer your family. Thank you for your consideration
Mary is a wonderful caregiver. She is reliable, kind, and nurturing. It was the first time my daughter had been taken care of by someone other than family. Mary handled the separation anxiety with grace and they were quickly best buds. Mary could handle any challenges that came up. It was a joy to have her be a part of our household.
