About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been a professional nanny for over 12 years, caring for 36 children throughout my career aged birth to teens. I specialize working with infants and toddlers under 4, children with learning differences and special needs, and multiples/siblings. Additional experience in other childcare environments include: preschool assistant/teacher, special needs school teacher, church nursery director, and children's pastor. I'm seeking a nanny position with a private family. I'm looking for a position where demonstrated love for children and the yearning to make a difference in young lives will be utilized effectively. Beyond my experience and vast skill set, I bring a respectful attitude, discretion, and outgoing nature to provide children with exceptional care and education. Moreover, feedback from parents boasts my discretion to offer solutions and advice only when requested, allowing first-time parents to navigate the nuances and challenges of the first year themselves.

It's hard to believe that Melissa was with us for almost a year. We absolutely loved her and how much she loved our kids. She goes above and beyond everyday and you can tell she loves what she does! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to me. - Erika
