About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I have had several years' experience working in child care, ranging from infant care to early teen care. I am very patient, creative, and often engage children in arts and crafts, or whatever they are interested. My work as a respite care provider for autistic children has helped me to think out of the box when it comes to what kids enjoy, and how to provide them with a safe, fun, and rewarding experience. On a personal level, I have a passion for history and art, and love accompanying children on outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and whatever their interests are.

I would hire Melissa again and again she is an amazing and patient caregiver. My daughter is low functioning autistic, Melissa was incredible with her. We relocated because of my husband's job and requested Melissa accompany us but she wanted to remain in North Shore. I can't recommend her enough. She is kind gentle and funny, a nanny to aim for. Enough said.
