Hi, my name is Melissa. I’m an experienced nanny and babysitter. I have had worked in the service full time for 8 years now. I feel confident in providing you and your family with exceptional service. I understand that being a parent can be difficult, it really takes a village and living in the city can make it hard to find someone you can rely on. That’s where I come in, I’m a reliable and responsible nanny/babysitter. I find my patient, creative, and positive personality help me thrive when working with parents and kids. My range in nannying and babysitting is vast. I have been care giver to all ages and quantities. From providing care to a single child, to watching newborn triplets overnight and running my own summer camp for a group of neighborhood kids ages 5-11 from 8am-3pm. I know how to create a structured routine that involves Read more fun/play and focused driven activities. I have multiple references on hand that I can provide. Im CPR Certified and have a valid drivers license in the state of IL. I have my own vehicle. I’m also a pet and house sitter if needed. I have watched: bearded dragons, dogs, cats, rabbits. I look forward to meeting you, please reach out with any questions or concerns.
