My name is Marisa. I have a 6 month old daughter. I am 38 years old. I have always had a love for working with children. I am also a birth and postpartum doula. I am a lifeguard, as well as a swim instructor. I have completed all of my Early Childhood Education units. I have 38 ECE units. I have my teaching credentials through California. I have worked with special needs children as well. I I am trust line certified. I love animals of all kinds. I also own a pet sitting and dog walking business. I love doing arts & crafts, play dates, hiking, organizing, photography, painting, swimming, laughing, playing dress up, eating healthy, Zumba, hiking, cooking, baking, traveling, ice skating, dancing, and having a good time. I have a very safe and reliable vehicle that I have transported many children in. I have a clean driving record. I'm a non smoker/ non drug user. I feel its most important to truly engage with the children rather then just sitting them in front of a television. I do ask when contacting me and booking me for a particular job that you let me know ahead of time if there is any issue in regards to where to park. CANCELLATION POLICY: I plan my time and budget around the hours booked, I am aware that things come up from time to time, and I am very understanding of this, so if its less then a week notice for cancellation I do ask that I be paid for 50% of my time that was booked. It's hard to fill last minute gigs. Thank you.

Marisa is a warm, caring person - I trusted my daughter (3yo) with her immediately. They took to each other right off the bat, which isn't usually the case with my daughter and new people. She's also professional, punctual, communicative to boot. I couldn't recommend Marisa enough, and will definitely be reaching out to her again!
