My name is Marisa Haviland. I am a former middle school English teacher and education consultant. I have over 16 years of childcare experience (6 years as a teacher) with children of all ages. My first job was as a teacher assistant in the infant room of a daycare facility at the age of 16, and I continued childcare for families I had established long-term relationships with throughout college and my teaching career, primarily as a full-time summer nanny. Over the years I've cared for infants (including multiples), toddlers, and school-aged children. I am originally from Minneapolis, MN. After bouncing around a bit on the East Coast, I moved to Dana Point, CA in 2020 with my husband. We absolutely love calling Dana Point home :) Another fun fact about me, both of my parents are deaf and I am fluent in sign language. I love to teach sign language Read more to the kids I care for, and they have a ball learning a new language in a completely different way. I am CPR and first aid certified and Trustline registered. I have a Master's degree in education (Learning Design & Technology). LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marisaschommer/ Resume (Google Doc): https://tinyurl.com/3x88wvc6
