Melissa was a total lifesaver. She jumped in last minute to help with both my kids while I wfh and handled my screaming baby like a pro. She stayed an extra hour when I had to work late and even got my anxious 5 yr old son to sleep while we were on date night — this woman is a miracle worker! So grateful for her - calm, reliable, patient and great with kids! Love her!
