Mara is always on time and communicative. If we go too long without a date night, my kids are asking "When will we see Mara again??" Mara is the standard we measure others against when for discussing care for our children.

Mara is professional and thorough. At our interview she asked a lot of really great questions trying to get to know our family and expectations. She has been easy to work with and my boys like her. She cleans up after herself and our boys while she's here and is eager to please.
