About Merilee

Experience: 10 yrs

As an experienced caregiver with a decade of service and a deep passion for nurturing children's growth, I find immense joy in positively impacting their lives. My calm and creative nature, coupled with my ability to connect with children, makes me an ideal caregiver. I believe in open and frequent communication with parents, keeping them informed about their child's day and any matters that arise. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a safe and structured environment for the children in my care. From outdoor sports to board games and educational activities, I enjoy a variety of games that stimulate children's minds and bodies. With a college degree and coursework in early child development, I'm well-equipped to support children's development. I've been a foster mom for several years and a PI for 15 years.
