Hello! My name is Marissa originally from Huntington Beach but, now living in Costa Mesa on my own. I’m a student at Orange Coast College, perusing a degree in business. I’m a very active girl love going on hikes, being outdoors, swimming, or just being around nature. I have played sports all my life from Water Polo to Women’s Crew, so I have developed good structure in my life from being committed to sports. Such as being on time and always staying focused on my task! My very first experiences with children would be growing up as the eldest sister in the family and helping my mother take care of my beautiful three sisters. (Who are now the ages of 4,7 and 10)? I learned a lot from helping out with my sisters and once they started going to school and making friends alot of the moms would always ask Read more me to babysit. I've had developed very good relationships with family’s, especially with there animals. I am a big animal lover and don’t mind feeding and walking the family pet as well! I am also CPR/Basic First Aid Trained from working as a pool lifeguard over the summers. I’m a big water lover so I’m always open to help with swim lessons and teaching water safety (if you have a pool or club pass)! I also volunteer at my local church called Beach Cities Community; I work in the children’s ministry and work from the nursery to the 5th graders room. Over the summer I worked at our church's children's summer camp, and I worked with the special needs kids, whom I loved every moment off, they definitely kept me on my toes! I’m a big believer in showing a child that everything we do; we do it with respect and always have good manners. To show that if we clean up after ourselves we get to watch that movie or have that special treat. I consider myself a very caring a loving person but If a child needs to be told what to do, I do not hesitate and just simply tell them what they are doing is wrong and deal with the situation and discuss what he/she did was wrong and make sure they don’t do it again. I do thank you for taking the time to read my profile, if you have any questions please free to contact me! I would love to answer any of your questions, and hope to here from you soon!
