About Melissa

Experience: 1 yr

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'm a patient and creative caregiver passionate about supporting families and providing a dependable childcare option. I have a B. S. Degree in Health Science, First Aid Training, and CPR Training, I am comfortable with taking care of two children at a time and follow the parents' lead when it comes to rules. I'll make sure your kids stay out of trouble! Most of my experience comes from volunteering to engage with kids such as through No Hunger Summer through Second Harvest Food Bank and babysitting neighbor's kids. I am an occupational therapy student with some experience in child development, meeting sensory needs, and finding engaging activities to fulfill a child's occupation of play. I love playing various games, from outdoor sports to board games, and educational activities. I love arts and crafts. You'll receive regular updates on your child's day if you desire. I have a 2008 Honda Pilot. Can speak a bit of Mandarin. But not particularly fluent.
