About Melissa

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi! My name is Melissa. I have extensive childcare experience. I previously did childcare from my home for children newborn to 12 years of age from 2012-2015. My downstairs was converted into a playroom filled with toys, games, reading, learning and social interaction with other children. I am an active caregiver and also a mom myself. I like to spend time outdoors and go to parks, the zoo, Little Red Schoolhouse, museums and walks around the neighborhood to explore. I love to show children things they have never seen before and teach them. I have newborn experience as well. I am a loving and caring person that would treat your child like my own, I am able to feed, bathe, dress, soothe, play, teach and love. I am very detailed when it comes to cleanliness for the baby. Clean thoroughly when changing diapers and diaper rash prevention. I am also experienced with colic and how to soothe and care for the baby. I love children and would love to care for your child when you need to be away!

I used Melissa for 2 weeks while my primary sitter was on vacation. I had a great experience! My daughter was always very excited to pull up to Melissa's house! Not only is Melissa wonderful, but her children are very sweet too. When I dropped off my kids, it was reassuring to see her daughter grab my daughter's hand and run off and play. My experience with Melissa was great!
