About Melissa
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Prior to Covid, I had worked during the school year as an Assistant Site Coordinator in Sudbury, for the after-school program. I have two children of my own and we live in Sudbury as well. Previously, I was a preschool Director for nine years that focused on toddlers. I have been a nanny and a driver as needed. My degree, from Lesley University, is in Human Development and Family Studies, with a minor in Education. I'm current with CPR and First Aid, as well as a CORI done every year. I enjoy outdoor activities/sports and craft projects. I also love to cook and swim! In addition to working with children, I've done pet care. I have stayed at people's homes, or just arrived to feed/walk/play. The animals I've primarily worked with are dogs and cats. I also just completed a program to become a certified Forest Therapy Guide. I have a Wilderness certification and renewed both my CPR and First Aid, for infants through adults.

Melissa was an excellent caregiver for my infant. She is kind, patient, generous and understanding in every way possible. I look at her as an angel we desperately needed. She nurtured my baby as I hoped and was sweet to get him books/toys he adores. She has a huge heart. Not enough words to describe how great she is. Any family would be blessed to have her.
