I am a young, vibrant woman looking to work with a loving family. I enjoy crafts, trips to the park or beach, catch in the yard and any child with a strong imagination. I am a recent college graduate with a degree in English and plan on working for a Masters in Social Work. I am aware of how significant childhood is for development of healthy adults and how difficult it can be to choose someone to trust with your children. I would be honored to be a part of you and your children's lives. I've worked with children in all age ranges from infancy through early teenage years. I feel comfortable providing care for as many as 3 children at a time and do have experience with up to four. I look for families that have active, aware parents looking for an extra pair of hands (and eyes!) with Read more children who are adventurous and interested in learning. I have experience as a tutor as well as a nanny. I believe strongly in talking respectfully through difficulty and anger, laying out boundaries from the beginning to allow conflict to arise and be resolved peacefully. I would love an opportunity to discuss what you are looking for and my own experience. Good luck in looking for the right care provider for your family!

Mary is excellent. I feel completely at ease leaving our young son in her care. She handles a teething, finicky child with grace and with a smile. On top of her fantastic qualifications as a babysitter she is also patient, punctual and fun. I am very excited we found her on SitterCity.

I appreciated that Mary showed up early, as I had expressed my need to leave right on time. She immediately engaged my daughter and took care of her needs, even while I was still in the room, which really helped my daughter transition, and helped me get out of the house. I came home to happily worn out kids, and Mary was very gracious when I was running late. I'll certainly use her again.
