"Melinda was really professional and put together when we first met. She was super nice and sweet and my youngest really liked her right away :). It was obvious she truly loved children and enjoyed teaching them. Very organized, I got daily updates with pictures on how my child was doing throughout the day. I really loved that! Set easy to talk to and we would spend some time just chatting when I came to pick up my son. I always knew he was safe abs cares for when he was in her care!"

"Melinda was an awesome sitter and caregiver for Julia after school and all-day during the summer weekdays. Julia always looked forward to going to Melinda's to see some of her earliest childhood friends. But also, she seemed to look forward to many activities throughout the day - activities including arts and crafts, and games. Julia, to this day (now a teenager) has fond memories of those days. We feel Melinda was a very positive influence for Julia's early development and socialization and we have great appreciation for that."

"Melinda was fantastic!!! She is such a caring and patient sitter. Both of my boys loved being with her. They enjoyed their time with her so much, we kept in contact with her after to get together on occasion. Couldn’t recommend her any higher."
