About Melissa

Experience: 4 yrs

Hello! I'm Melissa, I've lived in the Los Angeles area for over 4 years but grew up on the East Coast a little outside of Boston, MA. I love the beach year-round, trips to the park, reading, arranging flowers, and walking my dog. I come from a big family so I've always been around children of all ages. I have also held professional child care/ household positions including experience with behavioral and medical special needs. The things I enjoy most about working with kids are their creativity, honesty and contagious joy. I value wellness above all and aim to take an individualized approach with each child that fosters growth and builds confidence. As a professional I would describe myself as reliable, dedicated and direct. I am proud to be a queer, latina woman of color so I am looking for an inclusive environment. If you think I could be a good fit in your household I would love to hear from you about what you are looking for as well as expand on my qualifications. Thank you!

Melissa is a loving and caring human who has poured so much into my child and our lives. My child loves when Melissa watches him as she has an innate connection with children that is so evident. When my son is with her, I know that he is being loved, heard, and supported. I enjoy having her in my home as she has a beautiful aura about her that makes her lovely to be around. She is dedicated and will treat your family and home as if it is her home. You would be lucky to have Melissa in your life!
