Marisa Delfin Barrera

Marisa Delfin Barrera, 28 years old, is a dedicated mother, partner, and hardworking Filipina from Las Piñas City. She lives with her common-law partner, and together they are blessed with a bright and cheerful 2-year-old daughter. The youngest among six siblings—three brothers and two sisters—Marisa grew up in a humble yet nurturing household. Her 72-year-old father worked as a farmer, while her 70-year-old mother managed their home as a full-time housewife. Their simple lifestyle instilled in Marisa the values of perseverance, discipline, and service. Marisa completed her secondary education at Imus National High School in 2015. With a desire to pursue a technical field, she later studied Information Technology at CAPSU Pilar State University. To support herself and gain work experience, she worked as a checker in a grocery store from 2018 to 2019, where she developed good customer service skills and attention to detail. Her journey in domestic work began in 2019. She served families in the Philippines, gaining hands-on experience and confidence in household management: 2019–2021 (Philippines) Marisa worked for a Filipino family living in a two-bedroom, two-story home. The household consisted of a couple and their 1-year-old child. As an all-around housemaid, she handled cooking, cleaning, and childcare. She took responsibility for feeding, bathing, and caring for the child, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. 2021–2022 (Philippines) She then served another Filipino family in a similar two-bedroom, two-story home. The family included a couple with two children aged 10 and 3. Her duties remained comprehensive—household chores, cooking, and caring for the children, including engaging them in activities and assisting with daily routines. Through these roles, Marisa strengthened her skills in childcare, especially with young children. She is confident in preparing meals, feeding, bathing, dressing up toddlers, and playing or engaging with them meaningfully. Aside from childcare and housekeeping, she is also willing and able to handle gardening, car washing, and pet care. At home, Marisa regularly performs domestic tasks, which further sharpened her abilities.

Driven, responsible, and family-oriented, Marisa Delfin Barrera continues to strive for a better future for her family.
