A little bit about me

I have been working with children since the age of 14, when I began as a camp counselor through the WorkReady program. In that role, I supported youth in structured activities, ensured their safety, and helped create a positive and engaging environment. Since then, I have continued to build my experience in early childhood education, working with children in various settings and age groups. My experience includes supporting developmental learning, managing behavior, and fostering social and emotional growth. Currently, I am pursuing my education in Behavioral Health and Human Services, which further strengthens my ability to understand and support children’s individual needs in a professional and compassionate manner.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Mary ! I have worked with children from ages 6 months to 13 years old! I have been at schools, daycares and I’ve done at home nanny/babysitting work. I am always looking for new ways to teach the children I work with because I do think having a curious mind at a young age is crucial. I am also a very crafty person and I love starting new art projects and I would definitely make sure your child is being creative when in my care.
