I first met Mary when she worked with me in my class of special needs students. Mary shows a great deal of patience with the students and has excelled in differentiating instruction while incorporating strategies that create a learning environment conducive to the special needs child. Additionally, she has become a childcare provider for my own child. She is always patient in the classroom and with my child. Mary helps my daughter with her homework and does fun activities that keep my daughter engaged and entertained. Whenever my daughter hears that Mary will be coming over she is always thrilled and when I come home she has had the best time. The care that she provides makes it so I have no concerns about my child when she is is Mary's care. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their caregiver!
