“In the early part of 1997, we were introduced to Merle when she served as the childcare provider for our three children in Santa Cruz County. At that time, our children were 18 months old, 3 years old, and 6 years old. Right from the start, Merle's exceptional ability to connect with children of all ages was evident. She had a no-nonsense approach that allowed her to effectively manage large groups of children, even those of different ages. Furthermore, Merle recognized and encouraged the unique personality traits and skills of each child.

Merle treated every child with respect and created a nurturing environment that was embraced by all. In situations where there were behavioral challenges, she skillfully addressed them by redirecting the child's activities. One of Merle's remarkable qualities was her ability to cultivate a love for learning in children. She had a talent for imparting new skills to children in a fun and creative manner.

“Merle, from the Santa Cruz County Nanny Agency, played a pivotal role in giving my children a head start for school. Instead of merely watching TV, she engaged them in arts and crafts, educational games, outdoor activities, and provided them with healthy snacks. As their first teacher, she nurtured their growth and development. Throughout her 11-year tenure with me, Merle proved her worth by ensuring the well-being and happiness of my children. My older son was under her care until he entered first grade, while my younger son started with her in the same year and continued until he reached first grade. The longevity of our partnership speaks volumes about my utmost satisfaction with Merle's exceptional performance. When I relocated to California and began my new role as a Media Specialist in Madera Ranchos, Merle was highly recommended as a trusted childcare provider for my one-year-old son. Thus, our journey together commenced. Merle diligently supervised my older son until he completed kindergarten and then seamlessly transitioned to caring for my younger son until he also entered first grade. Throughout our continuous relationship spanning 11 years, Merle meticulously planned each day for the children, offering them structured lessons, creative arts and crafts, engaging board games, educational activities, and various outdoor sports and games. Her ability to simultaneously care for children of different ages while making each one feel cherished and special was truly remarkable."baby-sitter"When it comes to Merle and her role at the Santa Cruz County Nanny Agency, it was evident that she rarely engaged in traditional babysitting activities. Instead, she consistently provided the children with a wide array of entertaining and educational activities, ensuring they never had to rely on television for amusement. Each day when I arrived to pick up my son after school, I was greeted with his latest masterpiece – a painting, worksheet, or even a craft he had crafted with his own hands. Sometimes, he would even enthusiastically welcome me while dressed in a costume, having just put on an impromptu play. One of the things I truly admired about Merle was her ability to infuse games with valuable lessons. Whether it was teaching the children about counting or phonics, her games were always educational. Additionally, her crafts not only sparked creativity but also helped develop their dexterity. Furthermore, Merle's love for the outdoors ensured that the children received plenty of fresh air and exercise, while her introduction of various sports and games taught them the importance of sportsmanship. Any parent who entrusted their child to Merle's care will attest to the fact that the hardest part was convincing their little ones to leave at the end of the day. From infancy through kindergarten, my sons thoroughly enjoyed their time at Merle's – even during the summers, as they would visit once a week. Sending my sons to Merle not only provided them with a head start for kindergarten but also instilled in them a sense of confidence that they could excel academically while still having fun. Any Santa Cruz County Nanny Agency would be incredibly fortunate to have an individual of Merle's experience and nurturing personality on their team.”
