About Melissa

Experience: 4 yrs

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With four years of experience, I provide patient, creative care for up to two children ranging from infants to pre-teens. My background includes Early Child Development coursework, which helps me design educational games that make learning feel like an adventure. I am also comfortable with light housekeeping and meal preparation to keep your home running smoothly. I hold current CPR Training and First Aid certifications to ensure a safe environment. I prioritize your preferences by following your household rules and communicating through your chosen method, whether that is a quick text or a detailed chat at pickup. My experience with special needs children has taught me how to adapt my approach to meet every child's unique requirements. I look forward to building a meaningful connection with your family and supporting your children as they grow.

Melissa was great with the kids, and very easy to communicate with. We’d definitely have her watch the kids again.
