Her first TV appearance was in 2006, playing herself in the series "Mothern" on GNT channel. In the same year, she acted in the play "A Noviça Rebelde" as Greti.

The movie was Brazil's submission for the 2013 Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film. In theater, also in 2011, she performed in "As Bruxas de Eastwich" as Maria Clara. Her success as an actress and a long-term contract with SBT led Larissa's parents to move from Paraná to São Paulo to support her career. In 2012, SBT aired the soap opera "Corações Feridos," where she played Viviane. That same year, SBT created a children's time slot in prime time with the school-based soap opera "Carrossel," where she portrayed Maria Joaquina, a role that became a major hit.

In July 2015, "Carrossel: o Filme," a co-production of SBT, directed by Alexandre Boury and Maurício Eça, was released in cinemas and achieved box office success. In December 2015, SBT renewed Larissa Manoela's contract for another two years. On her 15th birthday, Larissa celebrated with a fairy tale-themed party attended by friends and family in São Paulo. She publicly announced her relationship with João Guilherme, son of the singer Leonardo, who portrayed Joaquim in the soap opera "Cúmplices de um Resgate." The actress received nominations such as "Revelation" at the Extra Television Award (2012) and "Best Child Actress" at the Contigo Award (2013).
