Hi! My name's Marlene. I am 50 years old with four adult children-26 year old twins, a 20 year old and a 19 year old who attend college. I also have a 4 year old granddaughter who I adore and have been very involved in raising since birth. I have always loved children and babysat part-time throughout junior high, high school, and college. I worked for one family for over 7 years and provided childcare on a full time basis as an adult for over 5 years. I studied early childhood education at Ball State University where I was also a preschool teacher. I am a very positive, fun, and caring person who loves being around children. I also have one dog and two cats so I am very comfortable around animals as well. I am CPR certified, safety conscious, responsible, love to read, do activities, take walks, and utilize Read more every teachable moment that I can. My most recent position as a nanny will be ending December 29th when the little guy starts preschool. I have been with the family for a little over two years caring for their son since he was 3 months old. It has been a wonderful experience for me and I hope to find a nanny position where I can develop a great relationship with another family. I am great at my job because it is my passion, I am experienced, and I truly care about the families that I work for!
