About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing children comes naturally to me, and I've spent the last 10 years doing just that. My goal is to provide a positive and reliable childcare experience for your family. I'm patient, calm, friendly, and dependable. I have experience caring for children aged newborn to 11 years old. I'm happy to play educational games that promote learning. I'm comfortable following your lead when it comes to household rules and communication preferences. I provide regular updates via text or phone call, in addition to verbal communication at pickup. I can also help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I have First Aid Training and CPR Training. I'm comfortable with pets. I have some college experience and I'm eager to support your family. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and caring nature into your child's life.

Melissa was a blessing to our family during my cancer surgery recovery. She helped my family with running the house and was someone they could lean on. On top of that she was giving me excellent care and had endless patience. She was answering all of my questions either with her knowledge or she would get the information from her contacts. She is definitely someone that I would use again and suggest her to anyone that could benefit from her help.
