About Melissa
Experience: 3 yrs
Caring for children and pets is truly my passion. I started babysitting at a young age and have spent the last two years caring for children ages 1-11. I love creating fun and meaningful experiences through outdoor play, board games, and educational activities. I am comfortable caring for up to three children and always prioritize safety, patience, and kindness. I have some college experience and I'm certified in CPR and First Aid. I believe in keeping clear and open communication with parents, sharing updates daily through your preferred method. I'm fluent in both English and Spanish, creative, and friendly, while also confident in maintaining household rules. I also have lifelong experience with pets, especially dogs and cats, and I love giving them the same care and attention as I do children. With my own car, flexibility, and genuine passion, I look forward to supporting your family and helping your children (and pets!) feel happy, safe, and loved
Most recent review
We had such a wonderful experience with Melissa as our nanny and still use her when we need a sitter. She is caring and truly great with our kids. They absolutely love spending time with her. It gives us a peace of mind knowing they're good hands when she watches them. She's also great with our dogs, which is a huge plus! Melissa is always attentive, engaging, and went above and beyond to make sure the kids are happy and comfortable. Because of how great she is, we even recommended her to a friend for date nights, and their boys loved her just as much. We can’t say enough good things about Melissa and would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy and amazing with children.
