I absolutely recommend Mary for child care! We were with her for 3 years; she is wonderful to the children and creates a safe environment for all ages. She gives plenty of very healthy food and makes sure every child there feels special and loved. My son still talks about going there, and if we hadn’t moved my youngest would go there today. I wish I lived closer to her! The in-home environment is so warm and clean. She works so hard for each family and truly goes the extra mile for every one of her clients.

Maryann provides a very loving, caring, and thriving environment for the children she cares for. She treats each child as if they were her own, she even makes yummy purées for baby’s and cooks balanced and nutritional meals for all the kids in her care. Parents never need to worry about bringing food or their little ones ever going hungry! All the children really love her and call her “Nana”. The kids also do projects and learning activities to stimulate their little minds for growth. If you are in need of a great daycare provider I highly recommend Maryann.

Maryann is absolutely amazing. My son was with her starting at 3 months and she immediately became part of the family. She cooks all the meals and has an endless supply of bananas which my son would eat every morning. She was available and so very flexible with the schedule whether it was weekdays, weekends, or evenings for an occasional date night. She has a wonderful enclosed patio with toys galore and he was constantly coming home with cute crafts and alphabet coloring pages even at a young age. When Mark turned 1.5 we moved to Arizona and I tried to convince Mary to move with us. We were heartbroken to have to leave her and Lionel. We still keep in contact and send pictures back and forth just like family.

Maryann is an absolute blessing! When we had to find care for my youngest, I was so nervous since my older children didn’t have to go to daycare. When we found Maryann I knew my son would be in good hands. She has storytime, teaches the kids manners, ABCs, shows them how to eat with utensils, and even potty trains. My son started going when he was 18 months and he loves it and so do I. I often tell my husband it was one of the best decisions we have ever made. The kids refer to her as “Nana” which I love because she has that loving, caring, grandmother characteristic about her. She even cooks homemade healthy meals for the kids. Choosing someone to care for my child is not something I took lightly, but I know my son is in wonderful hands when he is with Nana. That piece of mind is worth everything, I truly don’t know what we would do without Maryann.

Maryann and Lionel Medina have cared for our daughter since she was three months old. They have treated her like family with love and care. Starting from the time our child was a young baby, they got her on a schedule and worked with us and our wishes to provide her with pumped breast milk. When the time came to transition to solids, Maryann (who goes by "Nana") made homemade fresh vegetable purees and often sent us home with the leftovers. Nana always communicated what was going on with our child and gave advice about food, pacifiers, naps, etc. Our child is now two and a half and still with Nana and Lionel. We recently went through the three day potty training method over a long weekend and Nana was supportive of helping our child through the transition at daycare and devoted a significant effort to getting her comfortable pooping on the potty. Our child is now fully potty trained and I'm so grateful to have had the support of her daycare in that endeavor! Nana provides all meals and snacks and makes home cooked meals including pancakes and scrambled eggs, spaghetti, and soups chock full of chicken and veggies. As we get ready to transition to preschool in a few months, we will be so sad to leave Nana and Lionel. They have become like family to us and have provided a warm and loving environment for our daughter when we're away at work.
