About Melissa

Experience: 3 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a retired dog trainer/ groomer of 20 plus years. I'm not that old but grooming took its toll on me. I then started working in a preschool setting for ages 3-5 years old. My main priory is creating, planning and cooking nutritious meals for the kids all from scratch! When my duties are done in the kitchen I assist in the classroom. Caring for kids has become a source of joy for me. I have my own child who is entering into her teen era. She happens to be on the spectrum, so I am very comfortable and understanding when there are kiddos with special needs. I am first aid and CPR certified for both kids and pets! Due to the nature of my current job I often take courses in childhood development provided by my job. It's my priority to assure each child's needs are met in a kind, and nurturing way.
