I'm a caretaker with five years of experience who is passionate about supporting families and making a difference in children's lives. My graduate-level education, along with my patient, creative, and approachable nature, allows me to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your little ones. I believe in open communication with parents and will keep you updated on your child's day. As a skilled and certified caregiver, I am well-equipped to handle any situation, from enforcing household rules to teaching your children new skills. My CPR and First Aid training ensure I am prepared for any emergency. I love playing both educational and recreational games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and puzzles. Whether you have an infant or a pre-teen, I am confident in my ability to care for your child and provide them with a positive and enriching experience.

Marlyn watched our son from when he was 3 months to 15 months and she is the BEST! He is always so happy to see her. Marlyn makes him diverse, healthy, age-appropriate meals and finds engaging activities to keep him away from screens. She takes care of so many little but important things - cleaning after meals, putting sun screen before taking him outside, that sort of thing. She goes above and beyond to take good care of those in her charge and will make your life easier too. You really can’t go wrong with hiring Marlyn!
