Meet Melissa

  • Comfortable with pets

Melissa is a 24 year old sister to an amazing five year old brother and has over 11 years experience with providing quality babysitting. She also likes to speak about herself in third person (only for the sake of describing herself and experience with babysitting, I promise I won't speak like this in person). After years of working and attending school (She has a Masters in Real Estate Finance and Real Estate Development from Georgetown) and currently serves as a fellow with Challenge Detroit.These days she gets to pass her time working for an amazing large company downtown and enjoys her home near the riverfront (she lives downtown). During her short time in Detroit she realized she misses opportunities to hang with little people! Most of her days and weekends are spent with adults and children are just so much more fun! Several Pinterest Boards and a couple requests from Read more peers out of town wishing to utilize her babysitting skills, made Melissa realize it's time to get hip to the Detroit babysitting scene. She is currently on the verge of finding great families and amazing children in need of a reliable and fun sitter! Available during evenings and weekends, Melissa is happy to meet you for coffee to discuss your sitter needs. Contact her at your soonest convenience for your babysitting needs. Whether tending to your newborn, entertaining your toddler, or keeping your pre-teen feeling like the dopest kid on the block, I can provide you with quality, unique and affordable care for your child.
