Marisa looks after our 4-year-old (wraparound) and 1-year-old (fulltime) and we feel really lucky to have her as part of our 'extended family'! The children loved her from the moment they joined her care. It's a real home-from-home environment, so lots of play at home and at baby/toddler groups, as well as trips out to coffee shops, farms, parks and more. We love that she's part of a community network of childcare providers, as it means the children are socialised both in a small setting at her home and a larger one at toddler groups and so on.

Marisa provides a safe, fun and learning environment for the children. She provides a wide range of activities, designed to help the children to flourish, and enjoy their time with her. She’s very communicative with parents too and always keen to ensure we provide a consistent approach to the children’s care and that we are consulted and kept informed about all developments. She is full of energy and positivity, is open to new ideas and obviously loves the company of children. She is very knowledgeable about children’s development and always looks to challenge and grow their minds.
