Meet Mary

  • Speaks German, Japanese, and Portuguese
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi there Parents! My name is Mary and I'm a 27-year-young female. I am responsible, energetic, outgoing, honest, creative and easy-going and I love children! In addition, I am CPR/ First Aid certified, have a New York State Driver License, speak and write fluently German, English and have initial knowledge in Brazilian Portuguese. I graduated from Welser BS IV Schwaben, Germany in August 2008 with an Associate's Degree in Communication. After I finished my education in Germany, I was able to reach out to new things and ended up living in NYC, where I currently work on another degree. I used to babysit in Germany for children of various ages from childhood - 12 of age, same as for the States. I am comfortable watching more than one child at a time. Also I'm available for overnight or short notice sitting, same as to help out if they are participating Read more in any educational programs. I have great knowledge of the NYC public transit system and am completely comfortable and capable traveling around the city with kids. I have the dual citizenship and I'm authorized to work in the USA. I currently live in Queens, but am comfortable traveling anywhere in NYC. References are reachable in both Countries. The schedule can be discussed, there is always a way. I hope that I'm the missing piece you are looking for. Thanks so much for your interest! Best Wishes, Mary

Mary has been taking care of my Maximo since he is 18 months. A friend of mine told me, when I was looking for a sitter, to make sure to find someone who you could consider family. That is exactly the way I feel about her. Maximo LOVES her and so do we. We had other sitters take care of him during Mary's absence and there is no comparison. She will not only take out Max for walks, help him improve his German skills, give him all the cuddles he wants, but she also leaves the house impeccable and always has a smile on her face. (even when I'm sure there are days in which childcare can be tough) I highly recommend her.
