About Melina

Hi! I'm Melina! I like to consider myself a nurturing caregiver with 5+ years of experience, I am passionate about fostering children's growth and development. My previous babysitting roles have strengthened my skills in providing safe and stimulating environments for children of various ages. I believe in open and honest communication with parents, ensuring that they receive regular updates about their child's day and any concerns. My patient, creative, and friendly nature allows me to connect easily with children and create an enjoyable atmosphere. I am comfortable enforcing household rules while maintaining a nurturing environment. From outdoor sports to educational games, I enjoy a variety of activities that cater to different interests and encourage learning. I have a degree in psychology and neuroscience from Loyola University Chicago, and I am certified in First Aid and CPR. (I am moving to St Augustine in December)
