Hello my name is Melissa! I am currently enrolled at college working towards a degree in nursing. I have been employed at a daycare for almost two years and currently have a nannying job in the mornings Monday-Friday, but am looking for an additional job in the afternoon or some date night babysitting jobs. Growing up surrounded by children, I fell in love with working with them and it became a dream of mine to work in childcare! With 10 years of being a cheerleader, two of those years spent as a varsity captain, years of being a cheerleader, taking the lead is something that comes natural to me. Guiding children in the right direction and watching their "light bulb" moments is very rewarding to me. It is extremely important for me to be educated in all ways possible to keep children safe. That being said, I am CPR certified, Read more certified in the use of anaphylaxis and epenephrine, concussion certified, and certified in the knowledge of blood borne pathogens.
