About Melissa

Experience: 3 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a babysitter with experience caring for infants and toddlers from 3 months old. I prioritize creating a safe, respectful, and nurturing environment that supports each child's unique needs and development. My approach to caregiving is guided by ethics and reliability. I am committed to maintaining consistent routines for meals, hygiene, and rest while fostering trust and open communication with the family, maintaining you updated with photos and videos if it meets your wishes. I'm a very organized person and I'm comfortable with some fair house keeping. My focus is always on the well-being and happiness of the children in my care. I am fluent in English and Portuguese. I look forward to connecting with you and your family!

Reviewed on 1/20/2025

She was absolutely amazing and caring with my newborn daughter, A, and my two cats. A. was calm and happy in her care, which gave me complete peace of mind. She was also fantastic with the cats, handling them with patience and ensuring they felt safe and comfortable. Her attention to detail and genuine affection for both my baby and pets truly set her apart. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!
