About Mara

Experience: 3 yrs

I'm a childcare provider with a genuine passion for nurturing the growth and development of children. With five years of experience, I'm adept at caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I believe in fostering a safe and supportive environment where kids can thrive and learn through play. I am patient and calm, and I communicate openly with parents about their child's day. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules, ensuring a consistent and structured environment for the children in my care. I enjoy playing outdoor sports and physical games with children, and I'm always looking for new and exciting ways to keep them engaged and entertained. I'm also happy to help with cooking and meal preparation, as well as light housekeeping. I'm CPR-trained and committed to providing the highest level of care for the children entrusted to me. I'm confident that my skills and experience make me an ideal choice for your childcare needs.

We hired Mara as a 3-days a week daytime nanny. She was very nice, but super unreliable. Had to reschedule our interview 3 times. Once she finally started, she would text me in the morning she was sick so much that over the 2 months she supposedly worked for us she onltly showed up about 1 out of every 3 days. She even skipped out on the first entire week scheduled to start working for us. She kept saying this would not continue but put me in a bind with my work many times so we had to find someone else.. She also didn't listen well to my requests for how to work well with my 2yr old so my daughter was crying and upset a lot with her while she never cried for her other nannies and isn't like that with us much either.
