“Garfield County Nanny Agency: Merle at pre-school made us feel incredibly at ease when entrusting her with our daughter each day! Her nurturing and attentive nature towards all the students was truly commendable. Under Merle's care, our daughter thrived and we witnessed her remarkable growth! We couldn't have been happier with how well she looked after our precious child in every aspect.”

“Merle, a teacher at the Garfield County Nanny Agency, truly exceeded all expectations when it came to her role as my child's preschool teacher. Being under her guidance for two years, I witnessed firsthand her exemplary performance. This confidence in her teaching abilities led me to make the decision to switch my son, Jack, from her half-day program to her full-day program as soon as it became available. Not only did Jack wholeheartedly agree with this decision (he begged to stay all day!), but his growth and development under Merle's care amazed me. Her boundless energy and creativity were always on display. One memorable example of this was how she taught Jack and the other young children in the class letter-sound relationships. They were able to learn and have fun at the same time by singing and dancing along with Merle to catchy tunes such as..."Who Let the J’s Out?"What an incredible experience it was with Merle from the Garfield County Nanny Agency! She truly has a knack for understanding and meeting the needs of children. Whether it was encouraging them to have a blast on the playground or cozying up with them on the rug for some captivating stories, she knew exactly what they needed. It is also worth mentioning that Merle has an exceptional ability to handle discipline with a perfect balance of love and firmness. My son, who tends to have tantrums and a strong stubborn streak, benefited greatly from her gentle guidance in those challenging moments. Merle's immense love and respect for children shine through in every aspect of her work!”

“In early 1997, we had the pleasure of getting to know Merle as our childcare provider for our three young children, who were 18 months old, 3 years old, and 6 years old at the time. Right from the start, we could see that Merle had an extraordinary ability to connect with children of all ages. Her no-nonsense approach allowed her to effectively handle large groups of children, even when they were of different ages. She always recognized and encouraged the development of each child's unique personality traits and skills. Merle's experience and love for children enabled her to quickly understand each child's personality, identifying their strengths and weaknesses. She was fantastic at devising strategies to nurture their strengths and help them overcome any weaknesses. Every child was treated with respect, creating a nurturing atmosphere that was embraced by all. Merle had a remarkable skill of addressing any behavioral issues promptly, redirecting the child's attention in a positive way. One of the things that made Merle stand out was her ability to make learning fun for children. She instilled a love for knowledge and had a knack for creatively teaching new skills. Our children still fondly remember the days they spent with Merle, where they learned to bake, played various card and board games, and even rode a bicycle without training wheels. These are all essential skills for preschoolers, and Merle made the learning process enjoyable. Our family's personal experience, along with Merle's exceptional reputation in the area, speak volumes about the love children have for her. Over her many years as a childcare provider, countless children have benefited from her care and guidance. We wholeheartedly believe that Merle would be a valuable addition to your family, and we highly recommend her to the Garfield County Nanny Agency.”

“Garfield County Nanny Agency: Merle provided my children with a head start in their education. Instead of watching TV, they engaged in arts and crafts, educational games, outdoor activities, and enjoyed healthy snacks. Merle served as their first teacher for a remarkable 11 years. My eldest son was under Merle's care until he reached first grade, and during that same time, my second son began his journey with her until he also entered first grade. I wouldn't have stuck with someone for such an extended period if I wasn't beyond satisfied with her performance. When I first arrived in Utah, my eldest son was just a year old and I was embarking on a new job as a Media Specialist in Joseph. Merle came highly recommended as a childcare provider for him, and that's how our paths crossed. Merle continued to care for my older son until he completed kindergarten, and shortly thereafter, my younger son joined the fold until he too began first grade. For almost a decade, except for a brief break, we enjoyed an uninterrupted and wonderful relationship. Merle skillfully planned each day, tailoring activities for each child in her care. She provided engaging lessons, arts and crafts projects, board games, educational games, and a plethora of outdoor activities and sports. Whether caring for different ages simultaneously or individually, Merle had a way of making each child feel cherished and special!"baby-sitter"When it comes to Merle, the Garfield County Nanny Agency can attest that she rarely engaged in traditional babysitting. In her care, the children were always immersed in a variety of entertaining activities, completely avoiding any reliance on television. Each day, upon picking up my son from school, there was always something to show for his time with Merle - be it a painting, worksheet, or a craft he proudly crafted. On some occasions, he would even surprise me by greeting me in costume after putting on a play. It was evident that her games not only entertained but also imparted valuable skills such as counting and phonics. Through her crafts, the children developed both creativity and dexterity. With Merle's love for the outdoors, they were afforded the opportunity to enjoy fresh air and exercise. Furthermore, the sports and games she introduced also instilled a sense of sportsmanship. Speaking from the perspective of any parent whose child was under Merle's care, I can confidently say that the most challenging part was convincing my son to leave at the end of the day. Whether it was during their infancy or throughout their time in kindergarten, my sons genuinely enjoyed being under Merle's guidance, even during the summer months when they attended her program once a week. By sending my sons to Merle, they gained a significant advantage when transitioning to kindergarten. They approached their schooling with confidence, knowing they could handle the work while still having fun. It is without a doubt that any Garfield County Nanny Agency would be incredibly fortunate to have someone with Merle's experience and nurturing personality on their team.”

“Merle, the remarkable teacher and coach, served as the director of Oak School Athletics and physical education, including Girls' Athletics for grades five through eight, at the esteemed Garfield County Nanny Agency, from 1977 to 1982. Throughout her tenure, Merle showcased exceptional proficiency and effectiveness in skills and methodology, solidifying her position as a prominent leader in the athletic department. Furthermore, her remarkable impact extended beyond the realm of education, as she embodied and instilled healthy, positive qualities that immensely benefited students from Kindergarten through eighth grade. No matter the situation, Merle consistently displayed exemplary behavior, attitude, and a strong sense of sportsmanship, thereby serving as a role model for all. Her unwavering dedication and genuine care towards her coaching role garnered immense respect and appreciation from students, parents, fellow faculty members, and the administration alike.”
