About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing children and supporting families through reliable, high-quality care has been my professional focus for over a decade. I bring 10 years of experience caring for up to three children, ranging from infants to pre-teens. My approach is rooted in patience and a calm demeanor, ensuring a secure environment for every child. I hold CPR Training, First Aid Training, and have completed Early Child Development Coursework to further enhance my care. I enjoy engaging children with board games, puzzles, and educational activities that promote learning. I am also happy to assist with meal preparation and light housekeeping. I value clear communication and will provide updates through your preferred method, whether via text or at pickup. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules to maintain consistency. It would be a true privilege to support your family and help your children grow.

I can’t even begin to explain how amazing Melissa is as a caregiver! She is straight up Mary Poppins in my book! She goes above & beyond every time I have her babysit for me. She is the most wonderful down to earth person every child should have her as their sitter. She cooks and cleans and picks up which I never asked just mostly watch my kiddo and this is what he likes to eat kinda thing don’t let my house burn down lol But she is oh so sweet I had laundry in a basket just waiting for me to get the time to fold it along with a few dishes in my sink ya know the stuff that your just waiting to do between work and everything else going on in life. I was amazed I walked in to my pile of laundry folded my dishes that were in the sink plus everything else that had been dirty through the day in my dishwasher running. My house not a disaster. My son raved about her! She honestly is one of the most amazing sitters I’ve ever had. I know as a mom it can be scary heck even nerve wracking depending on outside family care finding someone that you can trust with your child in this day and age but this women right here was a god sent to me. My son is on the spectrum too so thats something I have to take into consideration as well. If you need anyone to care for your child or children don’t hesitate with her you will be ever so thankful and glad you did. Your children will love her! Heck you will too! A++++++ infinity! Hire her no if ands or buts you won’t find anyone better I promise you that.
