About Melissa

Experience: 2 yrs

Nurturing young minds is my greatest passion. For the past two years, I've dedicated myself to providing attentive care to children, always striving to create a fun and enriching environment. My background in Early Childhood Education coursework has equipped me with valuable insights into child development. I'm patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy engaging children in outdoor activities, board games, and educational games. I'm also happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I am certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, ensuring open and consistent updates. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules. Supporting families and witnessing children thrive brings me immense joy, and I hope to bring that same joy to your family. This December I will be finishing my associates degree in Early Childhood Education.
