A little bit about me

Hello families! I'm Melissa! I'm 24 years old and am currently living in Boone. I've been a full time infant/toddler teacher since August 2021, and I absolutely love it! I believe that children learn best through play, indoors and outdoors!

I have a degree in Psychology and a minor in Child Development from East Carolina University. I have taken 20+ trainings through the DCDEE and Watauga Children's Counsel since then to further my education in early care. In addition, I am SIDS & CPR/First Aid certified.

I've worked with children since I was in middle school, I can't see myself working in any other field!

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I am an artistic person, and I believe in letting children release their creative side! Whether this is through dancing, singing, art, and everything else! Each child has their own favorite activities, so I am ready for any and all fun coming my way!

The most important part about being a nanny...

It is most important to create a strong relationship with the child that is trusting, open, and encouraging. Children's minds are young and need positive and loving care during their most vulnerable years.

My experience with special needs children...

I do not have any current experience with children with different needs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of the children I've watched always asked me about my cats. She loved hearing stories and looking at photos. Every time I would go home, she would ask "are you going to go feed your cats now?"

Nichelle S. - Seeking Work in Boone

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Boone, NC: Nichelle S.

Hello! My name is Nichelle and I currently attend Appalachian State. I'm majoring in public health and hope to one day own a Non-Profit Organization for single women and children. I currently have worked many serving/bartending jobs but I am ready to work in a different setting. Though this may be different than working at a restaurant, of course, my mom was a daycare provider for many years and I grew up in that environment from a very young age. After I was old enough, the parents of the children my mom used to care for started calling me to pick up hours. I enjoyed every second of it and miss creating those bonds with the children. Did I mention that I am also a bartender? After long shifts at work when you (the parents) come back home I can make your favorite cocktail! On the house! If you're interested in communicating further please reach out! Thank you!
