Hello my name is Melissa M. I am a female who is from Pennsylvania who moved here In August. I am also a mother of 3 wonderful children ages 12,9,5. I attended a technical school for Early childcare education and graduated in 1998. From there I worked in a daycare for 3 years with many babysitting positions as well, from there I went into banking for about 4 years but really missed being with children. I became a full time nanny in 2003 and since than I have been with a couple families long term. 3 days after living in Gilbert I was offered a position for a little boy with special needs but unfortunately the mother decided not to return to work due to all the care and appointments she had to make for her child so that is why I am in search for a new position. I Read more gave many wonderful references and I am very flexible and reliable and will do anything I can to help out. I would love to hear from you if the position is still available. Thank you, Melissa M 484-425-3547

Melissa looked great on paper, but never showed up for the interview we arranged and never called to say that she would not make it. Unfortunately such actions don't say much for her reliability or courtesy.
