About Melissa

Experience: 6 yrs

Nurturing children and watching them blossom is my greatest joy. For the past six years, I've had the privilege of caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I hold a college degree and have completed coursework in Early Child Development. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. My approach is patient and friendly, and I always prioritize open communication with parents, adapting to your preferred method for daily updates or addressing any concerns. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules, and I enjoy engaging children with board games, puzzles, and educational activities. I am also willing to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. Ultimately, I hope to create a safe and stimulating environment where your children can thrive, and maybe even teach them a new board game or two!
