About Melissa

Nurturing the growth and development of children is my greatest passion, inspired daily by raising my own four children. With four years of professional experience, I offer a calm, patient, presence for families. My background includes Early Child Development Coursework, which informs how I facilitate educational games and creative crafts. I was a daycare teacher for a classroom of 12 3-year-olds and a para for a couple special education students. I am prepared for active play, including outdoor sports and swimming supervision. I hold First Aid Training and CPR Training certifications to ensure a safe environment. I am happy to assist with housekeeping and carpooling while following your household rules and communication methods. I am also comfortable caring for pets. Whether we are solving puzzles or heading outside for an activity, I focus on creating a supportive space for your children to thrive. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life.
