About Marleny

I began caregiving services at the age of 13 with infants as young as 8 months old. In high school, I worked at an after-school program where I tutored children between grades K-4. Over the summer of 2015, I worked in a childcare center where I continued care for children between 2-6 years old. During undergrad, I worked at my university's Children Center while being a full-time student and was also trusted to care for professors' children. Following my bachelor's degree, I served a City Year where I mentored 6th graders through a very challenging hybrid year of both in-person and virtual learning. In addition to my professional experiencing caring for children, as an aunt of children between ages 3-8 years old, I have substantial experience in taking care of newborns and toddlers. I am known for my motherly nature and capacity to meet children's playful and energetic needs! As an aspiring doula and midwife, my empathetic, loving, and supportive essence translate into my career goals.
