About Marissa

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I've worked with children for the last 16 years in some capacity and believe that every adult in a child's life has the responsibility of helping nurture the person they will grow to become. From years specializing in infant twins nannying to my time as an elementary drama teacher... I find ways to engage with children and parents at any age to bring fun, safety, and stability. My approach combines calm, flexible structure with consistent exposure to new experiences and environments. I love learning who children are and finding new ways for them to connect and explore with a focus on consent, emotional intelligence, problem solving, and self-regulation.

Marissa took care of my 7 month old who has been VERY attached to his parents as of late. She was very capable, responsible, and positive about caring for a relatively grumpy infant! I felt extremely comfortable leaving my little man with her.
