About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing a child's natural curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my lifelong passion. With over 30 years of experience, including 23 years as a teacher in early education, I bring a calm, patient, and creative approach to every family I support. I hold a college degree with a focus on Early Childhood Education, and I am current in CPR Training and First Aid Training. Whether we are playing outdoor sports, solving puzzles, or engaging in educational games, I prioritize your child's development. I am happy to follow your lead on household rules and preferred communication methods to ensure your family feels fully supported. I am comfortable caring for up to three children across all age groups. I truly feel that guiding children through their formative years is exactly what I was meant to do, and I look forward to meeting your family.
