About Marissa

I'm Marissa! An almost 30-year-old who has developed a passion + independent career caring for children. I started working with kids when I was in high school as the church babysitter. Then I found a wonderful family in college (with 2 kids when I started and they added a third while I was with them so I'm very familiar with newborns) and it turned into years of child care. I went full-time for that family after realizing that I enjoyed my days with the kids more than any other job/career. I was with that family for 5 years until I moved. After moving, I worked at a daycare for a bit and then found another family (with just one newborn) who I've been with for the last 4 years. My approach with children is warm, attentive, and revolved around safety + curiosity + individualized expression.
