Meet Carissa

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hello! My name is Carissa, and I'm an Elementary Art Teacher with lots of time on my hands this summer. I'm looking to babysit/nanny here and there to fill in gaps for families that need care. I value compassion, curiosity, and engagement as both a caretaker and an educator. I got my Bachelor's degree from Baldwin Wallace University in Studio Art, where I learned through my own experience the power of expression and nature! I'll take any chance I can to take kids outside to explore the world around them, or do art where we can explore their inner-world. I've been nannying since 2020, and have many references upon request. Additionally, I have experience in caretaking and teaching neurodivergent children. I am comfortable working with children that need some extra support. I am also willing to use my car if needed. Feel free to reach out! :) Looking forward to Read more working together.
