About Marissa

My degree in behavioral sciences has provided me with a strong foundation for understanding child development, though I've had a passion for working with children long before college. I've babysat, nannied, instructed swim lessons (all ages), hosted birthday parties, etc. I have experience caring for all age groups, though I enjoy working with babies and toddlers best. I'm known for my patient, calm, creative, and friendly demeanor. I enjoy playing outside, going on walks or to a local park. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and always prioritize open communication with parents, following their preferred method. I have a car and I am comfortable with pets. I'm happy to hold down the fort during date night, or on more of a consistent basis. I look forward to the possibility of becoming a part of your family's village!
