About Marissa

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

With over five years of teaching experience in elementary and online settings, I've worked with children across a wide range of ages and abilities. I am currently a full-time teacher in a small-town, rural elementary school in CT. I also design and teach online social-emotional learning (SEL) courses for children worldwide. My expertise in SEL ensures that I can help children navigate their emotions, build confidence, and thrive socially. In addition to teaching, I have extensive experience babysitting children of all ages. I love creating meaningful connections with kids and tailoring activities to their interests and developmental needs, whether it's reading, doing crafts, or exploring fun, hands-on learning opportunities. I also bring strong technology skills, which can be especially helpful for homework help or educational games. My goal as a babysitter is to provide a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment where children feel valued and supported!

Hi! Marissa has tutored my 8 year old in math for two years now on and off. The way she breaks down complex concepts into engaging and exciting ideas is unbelievable. My 8 year old loves her! We literally consider her part of our family. I was so happy when she told me that she was going to start care.com again! That is where we found her. Please don’t hesitate to ask Marissa to share our contact info with you, and we’d love to give her a great testimonial if you are interested.
