Hello! My name is Melissa. I'm a single mom of two sons (22 and 20) and three cats. I was a stay at home mom for many years. Additionally, I have many years of experience in caregiving in various capacities, including child care, pet care, and household help. I started babysitting when I was 11 years old and continued all through school and college. I've worked in the infant room in three daycare centers, I've volunteered in the infant room in the church nursery, and since February of 2020 I've nannied over 20 infants and little ones. I'm CPR and first aid certified, I'm a non-smoker, and I love animals. I absolutely love newborns and I work exclusively with infants up to 20 pounds MAX. I am currently available on Thursdays and Fridays and will be available full time in the fall. I would love to be of service to you and your family! I hope to hear from you soon! References are available upon request.
We hired Melissa full-time during the first few months of our son J's life, and what a treat it was to have her with us as we adjusted to being first-time parents. She gave J so much love and quality time—playing with him, reading to him, and seamlessly fitting into our daily routine. Melissa has a sharp eye for detail and always kept us informed of any changes in J’s behavior or diapers. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. We’d recommend her to anyone needing the extra help. Thank you, Melissa!
