Meet Larissa

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi! My name is Larissa and Im looking to take care of yours and your child's needs! Im a very enthusiastic and energetic person that loves spending time with children because they are crazy adorable and inspirational. The best thing about hanging out with children is helping their brains expand like sponges by challenging motor skills, testing creativity and engaging in physical activity for a healthy life! For the past year 5 summers (2010-2014), I have had the incredible pleasure of working at the number one camp in the Bay Area: Camp Galileo for K-5th grade. Their vision is to develop innovators who envision and create a better world. I have enjoyed my summers there very much and have learned an incredible deal about behavior management, fostering creativity, risk prevention and safety, as well as how to have FUN with 5-10 year olds! I will be starting my Masters in Read more Psychology program at Cal Poly Pomona this fall and can supplement my program with some babysitting here and there. I get to work with kids 45+ hours throughout the summer but almost no hours during the academic year. Im looking to change that! I am CPR Certified, have my own car and have never been in a car accident (super safe driver!).
