Hiring Maryellen was the best decision I could have made for my family. She brings such positivity and passion into it every day. Both of my children loved her instantly. Her expertise in childcare is apparent and I trust her fully. This is truly saying something, as I have only left my kids with family before and am so protective of my babies. She is so extremely kind, so helpful. I couldn’t do it without her, truly. When you’re trusting the care of your children to another person, it’s important that they embody all of these qualities. I’m so lucky to have found Maryellen for our family.
