About Melissa
Experience: 5 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi, my name is Melissa I'm currently a student at FAU. Before I moved to Florida I lived in New York for 16 years and had the opportunity to work with children for four years. I was a soccer coach for children ages 18 months-12 years old and babysat privately. I also tutored children with disabilities and brought gifts as rewards to motivate them. I am a goofy person especially with children and I enjoy arts and crafts and playing outdoors. I also had the opportunity to work at a daycare working with infants and toddlers enjoying their stages of development and teaching them how to communicate and have fun. If needed I do know how to cook Hispanic meals. If your child has a routine I would love to help keep it whether it's reading a bedtime story or brushing your teeth with a song. I am bilingual and fluent in both English and Spanish. Feel free to call me last minute I would love to help you and your family and have plenty of playdates. I am vaccinated!!!!

Melissa has proven time and time again that she has an exceptional set of qualities that make her a trustworthy and beloved caregiver for our 5 and 8-year-old. First, punctuality is one of her strengths. From day one, she has consistently arrived on time, and followed through on her word. It's a reassuring feeling knowing that we can rely on her dependable nature. Additionally, Melissa's creativity shines through in the activities and games she organizes for our kids. She effortlessly fosters their imagination, sparking their curiosity and engaging them in stimulating playtime/learning time that leaves them eagerly looking forward to her daily interactions. Above all, Melissa's genuine care for our children is truly heartwarming. She treats them as if they were her own, providing a safe and nurturing environment that puts us at ease. Her ability to understand their individual needs and interests further cements our trust in her. For any parent seeking a sitter who has the best interests of their children at heart, I wholeheartedly recommend Melissa. With her exceptional reliability, creativity, and genuine unwavering care, she has become an invaluable part of our family.
