About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm Melissa - a reliable, fun, and flexible nanny based in Newbury Park with 10+ years of child/home care experience as well as a military background. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, live scan cleared, punctual, and have my own transportation with a clean driving record. I'm also a dog trainer and love all animals! I bring creative, out-of-the-box thinking to play and learning, and I prefer to keep screen time to a minimum. I'd much rather be outside, doing crafts, or engaging in something fun and hands-on. I'm easy to communicate with, super flexible with scheduling, and I enjoy helping kids grow in a safe, positive, and playful environment. My goal is always to make life easier for you and provide an environment where you know without a doubt that your kids are in great hands. If you're looking for a nanny that's going to follow every single direction you leave me to the T or that you want to be creative, I'm the one for you!

Melissa is truly one of the kindest, most thoughtful people I know and an absolute natural with kids. She has this amazing way of making children feel safe, seen, and completely comfortable. My daughter was always so excited to see her walk through the door! She is dependable, organized, and incredibly attentive to the individual needs of each child. Whether she’s planning activities, helping with schoolwork, or simply providing a comforting presence, she gives 100% of her attention and care. I would recommend her to anyone searching for a safe reliable caretaker for their children. Sadly, we moved across country and if I could I would welcome her back into my home in a heartbeat. Thank you so much, Melissa! We miss you! -The M Family
