Marissa has her Master’s Degree in Educational Psychology and her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with an emphasis in early childhood development from Wichita State University. Marissa also has training in Play Therapy (in which the philosophy is: children learn and heal through play). She operated her own licensed in-home daycare for almost 3 years, which allowed her to be at home with her children. Today, Marissa has three children, Mariah, Londyn and Landan. She grew up helping her grandparents with their daycare and gives them much credit for the teaching strategies she has adopted. Marissa believes that children learn best through experience and observation of others around them. It is our job to help guide them and create a safe environment for children to enjoy their experiences.
