Client Reviews

Where can I start?! I never had anyone care for my children except family, pregnant with baby #3, a 6 year old and 3 year old, I knew I needed help. I asked around & I heard about Mary. To me she is Mary magic!!!

Mary came into my life, my home, my family and transformed my approach to motherhood bc she gave me a sense of peace! That peace within me made all the "stuff" you handle as a new mom, breast feeding & a mom to 2 older children fall into place magically easy & peaceful. Mary Magic!! Made it feel as if I left the home, I was still there but it was Mary doing those things at home while I found time for myself. I signed Mary up for 12 weeks 3 times a week & she stayed for a full year! I couldn't let go! I still call upon her to babysit, child caring advice but mostly to talk.. Mary became a dear friend & a part of my life & family. My kids adore her. She made transitioning to a newborn a mom of 3.. With my head spinning she brought me peace. I can not say enough about her. Mary was the greatest decision we made as a family! Mary magic will forever be a part of us!! She makes being a mom & the feeling of being in two places at once possible!!!!!

Where do I begin? Mary was my lifesaver!!

We hired Mary from a recommendation of a friend. I had never used any help with my kids other than my mother, but expecting my 3rd baby with 2 other children 18 months and 5 years old, I knew I was going to need consistent help. Mary was the only person we interviewed and we knew right away she was the perfect match for us once we met her. She started 5 days after my 3rd was born and she brought such calmness into our house. She came in ready to go and became a perfect addition to our family. She was very knowledgeable about babies and very loving. She was willing and helped with anything we needed from caring for the baby and older kids, preparing meals, doing laundry and other house keeping, and she was so easy to talk to when life became overwhelming dealing with 3 kids. Mary is like family to us and we still use her to watch our 3 children who are now 16 months, 3 years, and 6 1/2 years old. Whenever she comes to visit now my middle son says "Mimi's home!" and all my kids' faces just light up to see her. We truly love her like family and are so thankful she came into our lives and provided us with such love and support.

One of the greatest joys in life is the gift of motherhood.

There are many new challenges and questionable situations that arise throughout this journey. There is no greater gift than to have the knowledge of someone who can help you throughout difficult times, show constant and loving support and be there for you 24/7. The name of this special "angel" in my life is Mary Olesky. My daughter is now 14 months old and Mary has been with me every step of the way. I met her about a month before my daughter was born and she prepared me for childbirth, nursing my baby and all of the new things I would be experiencing as a mom. Mary came to my house the day I arrived home from the hospital to help assist and get me started with nursing my baby. Nursing is not easy for any new mom and Mary made me feel comfortable, confident and that "I can do it!" Little did I know when I first got started that 14 months later I would still be nursing my daughter, loving every minute of it, and never having to give her a drop of formula. Not only did Mary help me with frequent home visits, face time calls, phone calls and texts 24/7 as I needed her with nursing support, she helped me in many other areas of caring for a baby. Whenever I had (and still have) questions about nap and sleep schedules, sleep training, starting my daughter on solid foods, developmental milestones my daughter should be reaching, how to discipline behavior and so many more things...Mary was there and I know she always will be. That's what makes her so amazing!!! Mary is a genuine person who truly cares about each one of her clients as if they are her own family. I can not say enough about how special Mary is to me and what a positive impact she has made in my life. The amount of knowledge she has is simply incredible. As I always say, Mary knows everything! She will always be one of the most important people in my life who I would HIGHLY recommend to any new mom and she is a fabulous addition to any new family!
