About Marissa

With 29 years of experience in early childhood education and a background as a nanny, tutor, preschool teacher, and preschool director, I'm passionate about creating spaces where children feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow. Whether I'm helping with homework, preparing meals, calming big feelings, or managing daily routines, I strive to bring a sense of calm reliability to every interaction. My care philosophy is rooted in creating a place of safety, structure, and warmth where children can flourish with confidence. Families often tell me I feel like part of their team from day one. Beyond child care, I offer light household support, pet care, and organizational help, always with a spirit of helpfulness and respect. I take pride in being the kind of caregiver who blends professional experience with genuine heart. If you're looking for a nanny whose depth of knowledge matches her passion for creating emotionally rich and supportive homes, I'd be honored to connect with you!
