About Me

Hello! My name is Maryssa, and I am an enthusiastic and dedicated childcarer with a deep passion for nurturing and educating children. I hold a BA (Hons) in Creative and Professional Writing, which has enhanced my communication skills and creativity in engaging with kids through storytelling and imaginative play.

I have extensive experience working with children of various ages (newborn-teens) in different settings. Most recently, I worked as a Breakfast Club Assistant and after-school club assistant at a primary school, where I organized fun and educational activities that fostered a safe and stimulating environment for the students. I also served as a Unit Leader with the Girl Scouts in the USA, where I led campers in various activities, ensuring their direction and engagement throughout the program. This was a 24/7 job where I was the main caretaker for children for up to two weeks at a time. Before that, I served as a Preschool Teacher at Kindercare in the USA, where I engaged young children in age-appropriate activities and maintained daily communication with parents to ensure a supportive and collaborative care environment.

In addition to my work experience, I have a strong background in creative arts. As an editor for both the Readable Student Magazine and Currents Literary Journal, I have developed an eye for detail and a love for storytelling that I love to share with children through books and creative projects.

I believe in creating a positive and supportive atmosphere where children can learn, grow, and express themselves. Whether we’re exploring the outdoors, engaging in arts and crafts, or diving into a good book, my goal is to inspire curiosity and confidence in every child I care for.

I am excited to bring my skills and experiences to your family and provide a nurturing, safe, and fun environment for your children!
