About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello! My name is Melissa and I live in Arlington, VA. I currently work as the Respite Care & Community Engagement Director for a private, non profit organization for people with disabilities. As a Recreation Therapist and health care professional for over 11 years, I am passionate, caring, and truly love taking care of others! In my current position, I have flexible hours during the week so I am looking for a part-time job and open to additional hours on the weekends.

I highly recommend Melissa as a Caregiver! She has babysat my son and daughter as infants and toddlers for several years. She is always reliable, and always very caring and nurturing. She is able to maintain a great balance of fun and discipline. My kids love her!
