Born and raised in New Jersey, ten minutes from the beach, Marly now resides in Colorado (very far from the beach). Although she prefers warm weather and salty air, she also enjoys skiing, being on the water, and hiking with her family.

After graduating from Mount Holyoke College she completed her Montessori AMI Assistants to Infancy training course in Denver, CO. From there she went on to receive her masters in Early Childhood Education from Loyola University in Maryland. Most recently, in 2023, she completed her sleep consulting certification through the Center for Pediatric Sleep Management.

Marly has over 12 years experience working with families of young children, both in the classroom and as a one-on-one coach. Her work is multifaceted and her mission is to offer parents and caregivers fresh perspective and a helping hand as they navigate sleep training, potty training, and creating Montessori inspired spaces within their home for their young children.
