About Melissa

Experience: 5 yrs

Hi! I'm Melissa, a dependable, energetic, and caring babysitter with 5+ years of experience caring for children from infants to preteens. I'm a college student at Stony Brook University with a passion for creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for kids while parents are away. I've spent the past few years with the same amazing family, helping raise their children from infancy through school age and caring for new additions along the way. I value being a consistent, trusted presence and bring that same warmth and reliability to every family I work with. I focus on creative play, reading, crafts, outdoor time, and learning activities, not screen time. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, multilingual, a non smoker, and have my own reliable transportation. Families describe me as patient, responsible, and quick to connect with children. I'm flexible and available for both long term care and occasional needs. I'd love to learn how I can support your family!

Melissa has been an absolute blessing to our family! She’s been with us for several years, caring for our children from infancy through school age. She is truly part of the family. She’s dependable, nurturing, and brings such a positive energy into our home. Our kids adore her and always look forward to the days she’s here. She keeps them engaged, active, and off screens, and we’ve always felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. We can’t recommend her enough to any family looking for someone they can truly trust with their children.
