Melissa babysat my four year old for a few daytime hours while I attended a family funeral. She sent over all her documents and references and offered to come and meet my son the night before so that he could get used to the idea of spending time with her where she instantly put him at ease and formed a bond with him. She took him to soft play where he had a great time, she fed him and even got him to eat his peas! Afterwards he had a big smile on his face and couldn’t stop talking about how much fun he’d had with her chasing him around the soft play. I would highly recommend Melissa for nannying or babysitting: she has that ability to quickly connect with children and put them at ease and her professionalism and childcare skills meant I could trust her to take care of my son and focus on attending the funeral.
