About Melissa

Hello! My name is Melissa and I am a very experienced caretaker for both children and pets, and have some experience for providing assistance and companionship to senior adults. I am passionate about nutrition and healthy cooking/eating! I live in Arvada, and am currently a Master of Social Work student, graduating in the Spring. I am currently seeking a part-time senior care position. My interests: nature and outdoors, holistic health, nutrition, painting, hiking, caring for others, baking, yoga. Additionally, I have much experience providing healthy meals, prep, or even just getting your groceries and planning the private family while accommodating very strict diet allergies. I also have worked for Care. com clients in the form dog walking and/or meal prep only. I can provide a resume, and references specific for each type of position - childcare, cooking, and dog walking. Please message for direct contact info!

We had Melissa care for our 10-month-old and had a great experience! She is a good communicator, asking any questions needed to care for him ahead of time. She was great, playing and reading with him, and he had a wonderful time - was all smiles when I got home. We will definitely hire Melissa again!
