Hi! I am Melissa a young, fun, and caring nanny/baby sitter! I have been working with children from ages 2-14. I have about 4 years of experience and even have baby sat my own niece and nephew. I have experience with changing diapers and potty training. I love teaching children new things and especially love playing with them and keeping them entertained. I also have my CPR certification and I am a Registered Behavior Technician which means I am registered by the board of the United States and have been trained to work and teach children with Autism. I have dealt with many behaviors such as tantrums, hitting, biting, etc. and have been trained and have experience redirecting these behaviors and changing them to better behaviors such as using their words as an example. I am also studying at the University of Phoenix for my Bachelors Degree in Psychology to Read more then pursue my Master’s in Psychology with a focus in ABA (applied behavior analysis) to one day become a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). I am excited to work with your kiddo as I have learned that this is a true passion of mine and there’s nothing that makes me happier than a child’s laughter or smile.

Melissa came in clutch - our babysitter cancelled less than four hours before my brother's wedding. We were in a different city, and had no connections. Melissa was able to watch our kids last minute, and they had a great time with her. Would recommend.
