Hi! My name is Melissa. I have worked with children 0-5years of age, for many years. I am patient, caring, attentive, intuitive and loving. I have a joy for teaching, interacting/playing, creating art, curriculum and having fun exploring with each child’s creative mind. I love crafting, the outdoors, games, sports, healthy habits, music, drawing and painting as well as science experiments! I currently have an associate degree in Early Education and Administration, complemented by various certifications in early childhood development, first aid, cpr and infant courses. As a mother of four older children, I bring a wealth of personal experience to my work, understanding the balance between nurturing, structure, and fostering independence. Currently, I serve as the director of a childcare program, where I strive to create a positive, supportive environment for both children and staff. I previously ran and owned my own childcare for many years. Check out my work, Instagram at Missys_childcare_inc I’d love to connect with you and see if we’re a good fit!

Mechee Cherine – Compassionate & Reliable Caregiver Specializing in Whole Family Support I am a hospitable, energetic, loving, and caring caregiver with 12 years of experience working with children of various ages in diverse settings, including primary and secondary schools, a high school boarding academy, summer camps, and birth and postpartum care. Throughout my career, I have served as a teacher’s aide, babysitter for my community, assistant dean, activities coordinator for a summer camp, and Girls’ Director for a summer camp. Currently, I work as a postpartum care specialist, providing families with the support they need during the crucial early weeks and months after birth. My passion extends beyond childcare—I focus on a whole-family approach where no one is left out. While I absolutely love working with children, I find true fulfillment in supporting parents, ensuring they feel empowered and cared for during their journey. I have extensive training as a childbirth educator, birth doula, health advocate, and mental health coach. In addition, I am currently pursuing certifications as a lactation consultant, newborn care specialist, perinatal nutrition educator, and maternal mental health care provider. My skills include meal preparation, laundry, running errands, school pick-up and drop-off, diaper changes, sleep strategies, and engaging hands-on activities. I am also CPR & First Aid certified, ensuring safety and preparedness in any situation. Outside of my work, I enjoy art, reading, traveling, cooking, writing, church activities, exploring the outdoors, learning, and trying out foods from different cultures. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced, and compassionate caregiver who understands the importance of nurturing both parents and children, feel free to reach out! I’d be happy to set up a call or provide references.

I’m a stayed home mother of two girls, 27 and 21 years old. I have a BA in English Literature and an MBA. I decided to stay home when they were very young and just worked part time when my girls were in school. I believe that teaching kids as much as you can are very important especially at young age since they learn so quickly and easily. I’ve been babysitting/nannying children from newborn to 10 years old for the last 9 years. I am CPR certified.

Are you looking for an occasional sitter? A summertime sitter? I’m a full time art teacher during the school year. I’m seeking occasional sitting positions and summer time sitting positions. Perhaps you need a date night or just need an occasional night out. I have CPR, first aid and epi pen training. I have raised my son who is 20 and a very mature young man. I also raised 2 step daughters who are now adults with children of their own. I had been a lifeguard when I was 16, of course all that training is expired, but I feel that those life experiences stay with you. I look forward to hearing from you. I am vaccinated for Covid-19

Here is a little bit about me. *Self-description* I am spunky, fun and dependable. I enjoy doing crafts and playing games. I also take joy in playgrounds, riding bikes, swimming, the library, and other fun things! I feel I would be a great companion for your child. *Additional information* I began an interest in caring for children when I was 13. I would babysit for families in the neighborhood. As I entered high school they had a day care in one of the wings. I began working there for credit. From that point on I have always had a job working with children *Challenges of position* I have been with one of my families for 10 years, and I find that as they get older the respect level and listening skills decrease a little bit. It makes it difficult for me implement the rules of the house, so I have to be creative in my methods. *Rewards of position* It is a good feeling knowing that I am an important part in a child's life. Being able to watch them grow and help them with life decisions means a great deal to me.
