About Larissa

Experience: 7 yrs

Hi! I'm Larissa, a warm and bilingual caregiver fluent in English and Portuguese, with hands-on childcare experience and excellent references. I've worked with children of all ages and bring a calm, emotionally intuitive, and reliable approach to caregiving. I'm patient, mature, and deeply attentive to emotional well-being, routines, and the overall atmosphere of the home. I value consistency, gentle structure, and clear communication, and I take pride in being someone families can truly rely on. I especially enjoy being part of a child's early development and supporting parents as they adjust to new stages and daily rhythms. My goal is to create a peaceful, nurturing environment where children feel safe, seen, and supported, and where parents feel confident and at ease. I'm organized, clean, pet-friendly, culturally aware, and adaptable. I also have my own reliable transportation, allowing for consistency and flexibility when supporting a family's routine.

Larissa is responsible, trustworthy, and the most kind and caring nanny you will meet! She was amazing with my newborn and my toddler. She was able to easily transition as part of our family and provided so much help in our house in addition to childcare. I highly recommend her to any family!
