A little bit about me

Hi Families! I’m Marisa, a nurturing and dependable childcare provider currently pursuing my Child Development Associate (CDA) through CUNY School of Professional Studies. I have experience caring for preschool and elementary-aged children in full-day and after-school settings, supporting routines like meals, hygiene, homework, and creative play.

I’m passionate about Montessori-inspired learning and love creating calm, structured environments where children build independence, confidence, and curiosity. I incorporate practical life skills, reading, and hands-on activities so learning feels natural and joyful.

I also have experience supporting children with ADHD, using patience, clear expectations, and positive reinforcement to help them feel capable and understood. Families describe me as warm, organized, and calm under pressure. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where children can thrive.

More About Me

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

I volunteered as a tutor for the nonprofit READ 718, where I was matched with a 5th grader to provide reading comprehension and literacy support.

To quote Maria Montessori, I believe "the fate of the future lies within the child." I love nurturing a child's interests and guiding them towards independence so they have the best chance to reach their full potential.
