About Melissa

Warm, reliable, and nurturing nanny with over 3 years of experience caring for children from newborns to pre-teens. Fluent in English and Portuguese, and passionate about child development, gentle communication, and creating calm, supportive environments for families. I have hands-on experience supporting daily routines, developmental milestones, creative and outdoor play, and maintaining open, respectful communication with parents. I'm known for being patient, attentive, and emotionally supportive with both children and caregivers. I am also a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, which gives me a strong foundation in newborn care, postpartum support, and family-centered care. CPR & First Aid certified.
