A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Marissa, and I’ve been working with kids for about 4 years now. Most of my experience comes from babysitting for family friends and staying involved in my church, where I currently serve as a youth pastor and help in the nursery and Sunday school. I also regularly watch kids from my church, so I’m used to caring for different ages and personalities.

I’ve also worked at a kid-focused establishment for several months, which helped me grow even more in keeping kids engaged, safe, and having fun in a structured environment.

I’m very patient, kind, and loving, and I genuinely enjoy being around kids—they tend to connect with me really easily. I always do my best to create a safe, positive space where kids feel comfortable, while also respecting any routines or rules you have in place.

Overall, I’m someone you can trust to take care of your kids with attention, care, and a lot of heart!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I’m currently a Youth Pastor at my church, I’ve been on the team for about 2 years and now full time Youth Pastor! I’ve worked at a kids only establishment where we taught kids what it’s like to work, make money, etc!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing a variety of activities with kids that keep them engaged and having fun. Some of my favorites include arts and crafts, playing games, reading, and helping with creative or imaginative play. I also enjoy spending time outdoors when possible, whether that’s going on walks or playing outside.

I like to adapt activities based on the child’s age and interests, and I always try to create a fun, positive environment while still maintaining structure and routine.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important thing about being a nanny is creating a safe, nurturing, and trustworthy environment for the children in your care. This includes not only ensuring their physical safety, but also supporting their emotional well-being and development.

A nanny should be dependable, patient, and attentive, while also respecting the parents’ routines, values, and expectations. Building trust with both the children and their family is essential, as well as maintaining clear communication and consistency. Ultimately, a nanny plays an important role in helping children feel secure, supported, and cared for each day.

My experience with special needs children...

I have never done so, but I am willing to try! :)
