A little bit about me

Hi my name is Clarissa, some say I explain it all ! I am a self starter, I am the daughter of an elementary school teacher and grew up volunteering in my church’s nursery, which I still participate in currently. I have worked in an Early Learning Center as well as worked for Arlington Public schools. Previously I have completed Childhood Development and Psychology courses at Old Dominion where I focused on Art Education and Graphic Design. Needless to say I am passionate about art and creativity as I believe expression is what makes us unique ! I am very much a dog person, I love swimming and played lacrosse and fencing in high school and college, so I’d say I’m loosely into sports ha ha. I love the outdoors minus spiders and enjoy organizing, cleaning and anything that keeps my hands busy when I am not drawing.

Extremely covid cautious

"Marianela was a really good nanny. My son Austin started with her as his nanny until he went to daycare. She was a wonderful person and our son loves her until now. He learned many words in spanish which was convenient for us. She was very energetic and funny, and she also loved long walks and going out all day with the babies. She drives really well and is super careful with the kids, she loves to take them to museums, and make them know many places. My son never got bored while being with her. We love her until now, if you hire her, you will not regret it."

"Kiara looked after our daughter from the age of 6 months until just recently at the age of 20 months. She is an incredible nanny who works hard and loves our child as if she were her own. Our daughter has formed a very special bond with her and we are very sad to see her go. Kiara is extremely capable in her abilities with both babies and toddlers and finds fun and creative ways to keep them happy and entertained. She is very gentle with babies and knows how to soothe them. She is very helpful around the house and loves our dog and is always willing to take it for walks too. Kiara has become part of the family and anyone would be lucky to have her as their nanny."

"Lily is a very hard worker. No matter what task she's given, she makes sure she finds a way to get it done and she sees it through until it's complete. She's a quick learner and is able to adapt to routines seamlessly utilizing the tools given or skills she's taught. She also has the great ability to provide insight from a different perspective based on her experiences which proves invaluable in so many instances. As a person, she is a very charismatic, warm, and welcoming person. She can effectively communicate with children as well as adults. The kids always had fun with her, but she is able to create boundaries that the kids respect while also respecting their boundaries as well."
