About Melissa
Experience: 20 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hardworking, patient, warm, and reliable Professional Nanny/Newborn Care Specialist with over 10 years' experience, available to work. Throughout the years, I have acquired extensive knowledge in childcare. I have experience working with children from newborns through teens. I enjoy tag-teaming with parents to ensure the best decisions are made for their child/children, even in the most challenging situations. I always strive to create a fun and learning environment for child/children in my care by incorporating activities such as reading, music, playground, playdates, and other age-appropriate play. Above all keeping children happy and safe is my priority. Stellar references are available upon request. I look forward to haring from you. Thank you.

Melissa is the most wonderful sitter we’ve ever had. She is so warm, caring, and engaged with our daughter. Her #1 priority is safety and I’ve always felt confident with her in charge. She takes our baby to the park, the library, on strolls, and keeps us updated throughout the day. She also goes way above and beyond what I expect… she asked if she could organize my daughter’s dresser! And it’s amazing! Melissa is also extremely reliable and punctual. I simply never worry about anything when she’s around. We love her!
