A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Melissa. I am 24 years old and a little background information on me is that I have 4 years of professionally working with infants and toddlers from 3 months to 3 years of age. I’ve worked in three different Hope daycares, one in San Mateo: Little Beans Curious Preschool and two in Palo Alto: Mitchies Home Daycare and Little Ducks Home Daycare.
A little more detailed information on my working skills is that I am CPR certified, have taken an eight hour health and Sanitation class with the Community Child Care Council here in San Jose, and I have also taken an abuse prevention course online and have passed both with certificates. I am also very attentive when it comes to making sure the baby is fed, changed and always sure to have good hygiene(cleanliness). Personal skills of mine are that I am fluent in both Spanish and English. I am a quick learner and a dedicated worker.
I hope you’ll take me into consideration.

A little bit about me

Curiosity, compassion and humor! These are my core values as a professional caregiver with more than seven years experience developing children in and outside of the classroom.
I have worked as a professional nanny for more than 7 years, offering active listening, intentionality, and a growth-mindset for all children. I create environments for kids to evolve emotionally and intellectually. With a child-centric approach to care, I keep kids laughing, intellectually challenged, and asking questions of themselves and the world around them. I have a personal passion for the Montessori method which is most easily expressed in my commitment to open communication, experimental learning, and a community mindset. Outdoor activities and skill-building through play is paramount!
I have extensive experience working with fast-paced and dynamic HNW households, traveling frequently with families and providing assistance and support as needed.
