About Melissa

Experience: 3 yrs

I'm a caregiver with three years of experience, and I'm comfortable looking after up to four children at a time, from infants to preteens. I was inspired to become a caregiver because of the positive experiences I had in previous babysitting roles. I have always had a passion for working with children and helping them learn and grow. I'm a patient and calm individual, and I'm also very creative and imaginative. I love to play games with children, both outdoors and indoors. I also enjoy reading to them and helping them with their homework. I believe in open and honest communication with parents, and I will always follow their preferred method of communication. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and ensuring the safety and well-being of the children in my care. I have some high school education and am certified in CPR and First Aid. I am also a strong swimmer and would love to teach your children how to swim, if you'd like.
