About Marichelle

Hello, my name is Marichelle, a local born and raised in Bend. As a child provider I have over 10 years of experience working with children in both educational and youth recreation settings. I currently work as a Teaching Assistant at a Waldorf-inspired preschool and with Bend Parks and Recreation after-school programs. I started out in college, by working part-time as a nanny and babysitter in between my classes. Overall, I love working with kids, and my background has given me a strong understanding of child development, safety, and how to create a positive, engaging environment for kids of all ages.
