About Mary

Experience: 10 yrs

I am an elementary special education teacher with a strong background in supporting children with academic and behavioral challenges. Beyond fulfilling my professional duties, I consistently go the extra mile to create a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment for my students. I strive to build their confidence, encourage self-expression, and help them understand that it's okay to be different. My approach emphasizes love, accountability, and the belief that anything is possible with effort and support. My passion for working with children extends beyond the classroom. I have experience in community outreach, providing social services to families, promoting child welfare, and ensuring family safety. I have organized and hosted events, and have also worked as a junior counselor at summer camps. I have been the go-to family babysitter for over 20 years, caring for my nieces, nephews, & cousins. Working with children is more than a job for me, it is truly my passion and calling.

We’ve been lucky to have Mary as our childcare provider, and I can’t say enough good things about her. From day one, she made our two kids (ages 3 and 5) feel comfortable, safe, and truly cared for. She has a calm, warm presence that immediately puts both children and parents at ease. Mary is incredibly reliable and always communicates clearly if anything comes up. More than that, she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows. Our kids absolutely adore her. She’s creative with activities, patient in tough moments, and always seems to know the right balance between fun and structure. One thing I’ve especially appreciated is how attentive she is to each child’s individual needs. Our youngest can be shy, but Mary has taken the time to build trust with her, never rushing or pushing too hard. Now, she lights up when Mary walks through the door. We feel so fortunate to have found someone who not only watches our children but helps them grow, learn, and feel loved. Any family would be lucky to have Mary in their lives.
