About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

My exp. w/children spans 3+ decades & multiple different scenarios. At times I've been Director/ Teacher/ Principal/Governess/Nanny & more. My work ethic is well above average. My integrity, creativity & determination are my best personality traits. I'm bilingual & have decades of exp. teaching elem./Mid. School Sciences, Spanish & many different types of arts/crafts including sewing. I'm willing to meet and interview and discuss more. I also have a perfect driving record & lots of exp. shuttling kids to activities/games/Grandma's house etc. I challenge you to get to know me & you'll rapidly discover I'm worth my fee. I can also provide several excellent references and easily pass any background check! Could say more but I'm limited to 855 characters here... just ask.. I am flexible & love trying /conquering new things!!

Missy was outstanding watching my son! She arrived on time in prior to the visit me time to discuss any special care needs and specific information that I wanted to share about my son. She arrived with crafts for him to play with and although he is normally very shy when he meets new people, he took to her right away and wanted to give her a hug before she left, which is very rare, but is a testament to how comfortable
