About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

As a childcare provider with over 25 years of experience, I'm passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My patient, creative, and approachable nature helps me connect with children and build trusting relationships. I believe in open communication with parents, providing daily written reports and verbal updates at pickup, and I adapt to their preferred communication method. I uphold household rules as guided by the parents and ensure a safe and nurturing environment. From board games and puzzles to educational games and technology-based apps, I enjoy a variety of games that engage children and promote learning. With a college degree and training in early child development, First Aid, and CPR, I'm well-equipped to care for children of all ages. I have a car, am comfortable with pets, and am happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, and crafts.

We can’t recommend Missy enough. Not only is she incredibly trustworthy, reliable and flexible, but she also goes above and beyond to build relationships, both with us and our kids. She’s kind, patient, and has an arsenal full of activities for screen-free fun. She’ll be our first call for a sitter from now on.
