Meet Melissa

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am currently a PhD student at UF and working towards a career in medicine as a physician, and I am currently a mentor to undergraduate students in a laboratory. While I have not been paid as a nanny or babysitter, much of my experiences has been unpaid or volunteer work. In the past, I worked as a caregiver for elderly patients with dementia including my grandmother, and I currently work as a hospice volunteer for a special needs young adult who is developmentally delayed. I have worked throughout my middle and high school years in church functions with children of all ages, and I have worked as a tutor for two years for middle and high school students in the last four years. I have experience with young family members in babysitting as well. A little bit about me, I love gardening and composting, baking healthy treats, reading philosophy Read more and fiction books, and playing with my four cats. I am excited to engage in fun arts and crafts activities with kids to provide a fun and healthy environment while helping busy parents. Feel free to message if interested!
