About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

As a caregiver with over a decade of experience, I've seen firsthand the positive impact that quality childcare can have on children and families. My journey into caregiving began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered my passion for nurturing and supporting young minds. Patient, calm, and imaginative, I strive to create a safe and stimulating environment for children to learn, grow, and have fun. Open communication is key, so I keep parents regularly updated about their child's day, using their preferred method of contact. Whether it's engaging in outdoor sports, playing board games, or exploring educational games, I enjoy activities that promote physical, mental, and social development. I'm comfortable caring for children of all ages, and I can lend a helping hand with tasks like meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel arrangements, and swimming supervision.

Melissa has been the babysitter for my 2 youngest now age 6 and 13. She is great with them she has been babysitting for us for over 8yrs now. She does an amazing job of looking after the kids and keeping them entertained. She often takes them to the park or the Aquarium. She is very kind, loving, reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend Melissa to all parents. My daughter can't wait for her next trip to the Aquarium with "Minisa"
