About Melissa

Hi! My name is Melissa. I'm a responsible and caring gal with a passion for many things including helping families. Having grown up in Taiwan and lived in Los Angeles for college, I resonate with being bi-cultural, therefore I embrace diversity and enjoy working with families from all backgrounds. While studying Social Work in college, I worked as a nanny & elementary school tutor, and after college I worked as an ABA therapist for kids with special needs (~1 year). In total I have over 8 years of experience babysitting & working with kids between the ages of 2 and 13. Not only do I bring a positive & fun attitude, I am committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment for your kids, which means being stern when needed. I am organized, attentive, and I'm willing to go the extra mile to meet your needs. Some fun facts about me: - Fluent in Mandarin Chinese - I enjoy being active & being outdoors - I like arts & crafts - I have a pet bunny named Raspberry
