I'd describe my personality as outgoing -warm-friendly I like working with kids because I find their honesty refreshing and their point of views meaningful. I'm looking for a job that I can watch and help a child (children) to grow with a warm caregiver who will listen to them and play with them and guide them to be safe. I started working with children when I was home with my own 2 children. I had my families children 2-3 days a week depending on their needs. Ages were 2 months-5y/old. I then became a paraprofessional- 10 years in Spec. Ed. 6 yrs in a medically fragile room. Now in Kindergarten 3 yrs In my spare time, I like to go to my sons college football games and our other son coaches both football and baseball, which we attend. One thing you should know about me is that I promise to listen to & follow your child's needs & make them the only priority while I am with them. My skills include listening, reading , singing, and playing with children while keeping them safe.

We were visiting the area from out of town and hired Marilyn for one night. She was extremely accommodating, offering to meet with my family before the night we hired her for so she could introduce herself to my kids and they could start to get familiar with her. She immediately developed a strong rapport with my two young children, putting my mind at ease. She clearly loves interacting with kids. I was very happy with the level of care and attention she provided. If I'm ever in the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to re-hire Marilyn!
