Experience: 10 yrs
I have always loved being around children! I have worked in preschools, daycare as well as K-12 school settings. I've always had a mutual rapport with kids and truly connect and identify with them. I graduated from a State University with a BS in Child Development. My other work experience includes working as a Nanny, Pet/House Sitter, Family Assistant, Registrar/Counseling Secretary at a High School, Youth Adviser, Teacher, Camp Counselor, working at a residential facility. I have worked at an elementary school with children ages K-5th grade in the Learning Resource Center as a Resource Assistant. My three most recent work experience Includes a full time Nanny for two girls ages 6 and 8, Instructional Assistant in a Special Day Class at a High School and, a Site Coordinator for the YMCA, where I managed and facilitated an after school program at an elementary school. All of my career has been focused on making a difference in the lives of children and supporting families.
My daughter, who has never liked any other caregiver, absolutely loves Marla because she is, in my daughter's words, "nice, fun and makes me feel safe."
