Melissa was great. She came with great energy and warmth. My kids enjoyed her every moment. Truly nice and caring individual who even brought games but left my kid with wonderful memories. Thank you so much Melissa. I would hire her any time.

Melissa was awesome! She took care of our 1 year old and 3 year old while we were at a wedding (visiting from out of town). She brought a big bag of toys that our daughters loves! She was great at communicating and sent pictures while we were out so we knew they were having fun. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Melissa came to the rescue extremely last minute when our scheduled sitter didn’t show up. She was fantastic with my 2 month old, sent me pictures and left us a note letting us know when she napped and ate. We were so lucky she was available to work with us!
