I graduated from University of Maryland with a BA in Criminology/Criminal Justice. I currently have a full time job but am available evenings and weekends. I was involved in the Child Development Program all throughout high school. In addition I took part in an internship my senior year teaching at a local elementary school. I have plenty of references for anyone that is interested! I look forward to hearing from you, and meeting both you and your family!

Margo has been sitting for my two boys for about a month now and we are thrilled with the care our boys receive while with her. When sitting for both boys she plays games with them, keeps them entertained, takes care of baths and putting them to bed. When we get home the boys are sleeping peacefully and always report that they had a great time with Margo. The days that Margo sits for my younger son, she takes him outdoors and rides bikes, plays in the sprinkler, plays basketball, draws and paints, and generally stays very active with him. She is able to handle his challenging moments in a light-hearted way. My younger son loves to hang out and play with Margo and gave her the highest compliment by telling me, "Mommy, I think I like her!" ;) When looking for someone to sit for my boys, I wanted someone who I felt would genuinely care about them and I feel that we have that in Margo. She is excellent about responding quickly and communicating with us. Margo has worked with us many times over the past month and we are looking forward to continuing to work with her over the summer. I would highly recommend Margo!

The fact that Margo is a redhead made us (a family of redheads) like her right away. But when she played with our daughter and asked great questions to make us feel like she genuinely wants to take care of her, we were sold. She sent texts and photos while we were away, which calmed the nerves of this new mom. We have worked with Margo twice and will call her again soon I'm sure. She was great about getting back to us quickly and was available on short notice.

Margo was great! She was easy to reach and was very good about emailing and calling us back right away. When it came time for the job she was very punctual. My two boys loved hanging out with her. I would recommend her and we will be calling her again the next time we need a sitter.
