About Melissa
Experience: 3 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello, I would describe my personality as fun and outgoing. Currently, I am working for a family which has been a joy and their child has been under my charge since he was 6 months old. He is now about to be three. We have worked well together and I'm looking for a part-time job to fill-in extra time on Fridays or Saturdays. I'm looking for a respectful and considerate family, someone who is honest and upfront, and gives honest pay for honest work. I'm certified in first aid and CPR. I started caring for others in my life when quite young whether they were children, parents or old family friends. In my spare time I like to do everything literally I am a very outgoing positive person. I'm kind, honest, caring, considerate, punctual, and will work where there's appreciation for what is done, my skills include whatever is needed to be done and within my abilities, which are many. Thank you for having a looksee and I hope to chat with you

We needed a sitter to pick our 9 year old up from after care, take her home and hang out with her until we got back from a work event. She agreed to meet with us before we booked just to make sure it was a good fit for her and my daughter. The intro meeting went great! Melissa was on time, friendly and told us a little bit about herself. Melissa picked my daughter up from after school care on time and brought her back to our home. They games, video and board and started a puzzle. We would definitely hire Melissa again. She is very sweet, kind and knowledgeable.
