About Marisa
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi! I'm an outgoing, responsible, and creative teacher-turned-nanny. I've earned a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education, as well as having over 10 years of experience working with children. I love organizing, list-making, art, children's literature, vintage decor, and cooking. I currently live my with my husband and our fur babies in Des Moines. I believe children should be given warm & supportive environments to grow & explore the world around them, and I believe it's my job to help foster that growth. Working alongside little ones is rewarding and such a hobby of mine; I'd love to help your family by watching your little ones while you are absent! Encouraging independence, emotional regulation, play-based learning, routine, and safety and security are my top priorities. I am patient, empathetic, creative, and reliable. I have experience with multiples, newborns, twins, and more. Looking forward to speaking with you soon! :)

Marisa was amazing! My son was asking for her to watch him again before she even left. I was so grateful for him to be in great hands. She also provided me an update halfway through watching him letting me know things were good and an update with him. I would have Marisa watch my son again for sure. Complete sweetheart and super engaging with him and his activities he loves to play.
