Experience: 3 yrs
I have provided childcare for children ages 2-14 on since I was 18. During this time, I engaged in crafts, music, yoga, and other practices with the children. I have experience taking care of 5 children overnight, which included getting them to bed, and other light bedtime duties. Most recently I have worked as Montessori guide & Substitute teacher working with children 0-6years old. I have also been responsible for cooking and tending to household needs. I enjoy spending quality time with each child and getting to understand their specific interests (depending on age.) I love working with kids because I not only have a natural tendency toward caregiving, but I am personally lit up by the experience of nurturing and supporting a child in their own growth and development.
Marissa is extremely kind and intentional with our toddler. She goes out of her way to create new activities, sing new songs or teach new sign language each time she sees our toddler. Our toddler absolutely adores Marissa and is always asking when she is coming back. Marissa has been consistently taking care of our toddler for about a year now and I could not imagine anyone better to trust to take care of our little one!
