A little bit about me

Hey! I‘m Mery. I‘m originally from Germany and have been living on Long Island for 5 years. I'm a nurturing and experienced caregiver and as a mom of two, I understand how important it is to create a calm, engaging, and supportive environment for little ones to grow. I offer part-time care as well as evening and weekend babysitting, giving families flexible, reliable support. While I’m not formally certified, I’m deeply inspired by Montessori principles and enjoy incorporating hands-on, child-led activities into our daily routines. Your child’s well-being, curiosity, and joy are always at the heart of what I do.
