My name is Marissa! I’m a high school student who’s responsible, creative, and down-to-earth. I’m actively involved in student government, which helps me develop my leadership skills. I’ve got a love for animals (my guinea pigs are my little buddies), and I try my best to be reliable and easy to get along with. I have a lot of patience and enjoy making sure everyone feels comfortable and safe—qualities that help me connect with kids. I’ve spent a lot of time caring for my younger brother because my parents work long hours, helping him with everything from meals to homework. I’ve also tutored elementary students in French, which was a lot of fun. Plus, I’ve previously assisted in an after-school martial arts program, where I got to supervise and engage with kids in a lively setting. I’d love the chance to create memories and help your family!

From a young age, I’ve been responsible for taking care of my younger brother, as my parents worked often. This early experience taught me essential skills in child supervision, time management, and responsibility, which I’ve continued to develop by working with children outside of my family.
