About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

As a mom of two (17 & 10), I understand the care, trust, and dedication involved in raising children-and the value of a reliable, nurturing caregiver. I have 10+ years of experience as a: Babysitter Part-time nanny Live-in nanny Church childcare provider Sunday school teacher Children's Ministry Childcare Coordinator My approach is patient, creative, and compassionate. I believe in working closely with parents to maintain consistency in household rules and routines, and I prioritize open communication. I enjoy sports, board games, and educational play. I've also homeschooled my daughter for 3 years and love fostering a joy for learning. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, have reliable transportation, and am happy to help with light housekeeping, meals, and pet care.

Arrived a touch early in well maintained late model vehicle, dressed stylish sporty ready for kids . Calm confidence and a quick study of the layout of house, children ages (8 months & 3 years) and their likes & limits. She sincerely bonded with both kids even though primary responsibility was 8 months old while entertain 3 year old in pool. She embraced the schedule of naps - feedings - etc effortlessly. Melissa is a credit to her profession & a top choice resource for parents (grand parents) wanting quality care for children. Excellent conflict resolution between 3 yr old at dinner with creative suggestion for trying all items on his plate. She’s a winner
