Hi! I'm Carissa, your Nanny Extraordinaire! With over 10 years of professional experience in childcare, I offer a unique blend of professionalism, dedication, and warmth to support your family. I excel in creating nurturing environments that promote growth and happiness. I worked at Gymboree Play and Music for 2 years as a beloved lead teacher for their play classes, music classes, and their Pre-K school skills classes. I also worked at an entertainment company called Children's Delight for many years as various Disney Princesses for Birthday Parties! I've taught english in Thailand, was a live in Nanny in Berlin for 3 children, and a Nanny for 3 children in Nashville for several years. I was most recently a Family Assistant for a family in Manhattan Beach. Currently I am open to one off jobs and potentially something more consistent if needed and if it's a good fit!

Carissa was quick to respond (and continued being highly responsive) to my last-minute request in caring for my daughter, who was getting over a bad cold. Carissa showed up on time, had great positive energy, and was extremely attentive to my daughter. Considering how miserable my daughter was otherwise feeling, she ended up having as fun a day as one could have and is excited for Carissa to be back.
