About Melissa

Experience: 20 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'm an experienced childcare provider with a passion for helping children grow and thrive. My 20 years of experience have taught me that every child is unique, and I strive to create a nurturing environment that encourages their development. I'm patient, calm, and creative, and I love playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. As a caregiver, I believe in open communication with parents. I provide verbal updates at pickup and follow their preferred communication method to ensure they're always informed about their child's day. I also have a graduate degree in education and am comfortable enforcing household rules. In addition to my childcare experience, I have a car, am comfortable with pets, and can provide care for children of all ages. I'm dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for your children, and I look forward to the opportunity to get to know your family.
