Marianna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Marianna and I would love to help take care of your little ones. I used to sit small children (ages 4-7) years ago and would love to do so again. I’m a medical assistant by profession, therefore I know first aid well and have a few years experience working in pediatrics. I will care for your children well and protect them. I also love animals and working with them; our family has a yorkie and a cocker spaniel. I am patient, kind, and fun. I would love to work with you!

I am 39 years old, a recent graduate from PSU, with a minor in child, youth and family studies. I have been working at a therapeutic school for the last year with students aged 9-14.

I love reading with kids, playing board games, encouraging music and exploration of the imagination.
