About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

With over 20 years of experience, I'm here to make your life easier. As a vibrant and energetic retired mom of four I connect effortlessly with children. My background includes working with children on the spectrum, ensuring fun and enriched experiences. I bring creativity to every visit, transforming simple materials into magical adventures. From crafts and painting to imaginative play, I make ordinary days extraordinary. Certified in CPR and First Aid, I guarantee your child's safety. My base rate is $22 per hour, with private pay via cash. Known as "The Baby Whisperer," I excel at soothing little ones to sleep. Let me bring my expertise and loving care to your home.
