About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I've been a childcare provider for over 15 years, and I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development. I believe in providing a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow. I have experience caring for children of all ages, and I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while still being patient and understanding. I'm also creative and imaginative, and I love to play games with children. I enjoy playing outdoor sports and physical games, as well as board games and puzzles. I also like to play educational games that promote learning. I'm happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and crafts. I have a car, and I'm comfortable with pets. I'm also First Aid trained and have taken ECE and early child development coursework. I'm committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for your child. I look forward to getting to know you and your family!
