About Mary

Hi! My name is Mary, I am new to Chicago as a PhD student at Loyola University Chicago. I am the oldest of four, I have worked as a lifeguard for the past seven years, and have worked at both an elementary and middle school during college as a special education paraprofessional. As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider, I combine my passion for children's development with my years of experience to create a safe and enriching environment for your little one. My calm and friendly demeanor puts children at ease, and I excel at fostering their growth through engaging activities that promote learning and fun. With a decade of experience caring for children of all ages, I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while maintaining a positive and nurturing atmosphere. I believe in open communication with parents and provide regular updates on your child's day, either verbally at pickup or through text or phone calls.
