About Melissa
Experience: 5 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
First, I would like to start by saying I am a very respectful and responsible gal who absolutely loves working with children. I am a UC Berkeley graduate, currently pursuing a masters degree in nursing. I have several years of experience in childcare. I worked as a teacher assistant for a UC Berkeley Early Childhood Education Center as well as babysat outside of that. During my time there, I interacted with children during their active play time, prepped meals/bottles, helped put the children to sleep, cleaned up/disinfected, etc. I have taken Early Childhood Education, nutrition and psychology courses. I am CPR certified. Most of my experience is with infants and toddlers but I have worked with older age groups. I am patient and observant. I enjoy arts and crafts, swimming, going on walks, reading and keeping spaces organized.

After a FaceTime call with me and my son, and confirming she would be here, Melissa contacted me 37 minutes before her start time to say she wasn’t feeling well enough to watch both of my children. This happened the day before Thanksgiving so I had no backup care and no time to find backup care. As a working mom, it is so unbelievably difficult to find reliable childcare - and this is a prime example of why.
