About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I'm a mother to four amazing adult children (18+). I was a stay-at-home mom for 13 years and have experience in homeschooling. I hold a Master's degree in Special Education, a Bachelor's degree in accounting, and I am the Children's Ministry Director for my church. I plan and direct a camp for children with special needs each summer. My children have special needs in varying degrees. I frequently volunteer in many avenues, all revolving around children. I am passionate about making sure that children are not just watched, but loved unconditionally. **Please do not send me a booking request. Send me a personal message and I will get back to you! I like to have discussions with families who are looking for assistance to ensure we are a good fit.

Melissa is reliable, warm, and has good instincts. We used her to sleep train our one year old. She was loving and consistent with our child. I really appreciate her. I feel very confident recommending her for your family.
