Hi! My name is Melissa. I am an enthusiastic and caring babysitter with a passion for engaging children in fun and educational activities! I love cooking, doing science experiments, and having movie nights with kids. I find working with children to be incredibly rewarding due to their joyful nature and unique outlook on life. I take great pleasure in teaching and learning from children, and I am committed to fostering trust, independence, kindness, and respect in my interactions with them. With 4 years of experience working with children, I have served as a head camp counselor, a divisional lead counselor, an afterschool teacher, and interned at various schools. My passion for childcare and education has been shaped by these diverse roles, helped continued me to develop a deep understanding of child development and effective engagement strategies. Let me know if you would like to connect!
