Melissa’s references say she is sweet, kind, smart, calm and playful. One family she babysat for said, “She was engaging, worked on educational activities and school work with my children. Melissa was like a second mother to them. She was playful with them, but she also challenged their minds with art and building things. She is not a “put the kids in front of the TV kind of babysitter. Melissa is extremely dedicated and an amazing person to be around.”

Katy has five years of experience working with children, of which, three years has been spent working with special needs children. Katy has experience providing play-based therapy, redirecting maladaptive behaviors in a gentle manner, and teaching in a fun and engaging setting. She has plans to become an Occupational Therapist. Katy’s references say she is outgoing, sweet, professional and dependable. One family she babysat for said, “Katherine has a wealth of knowledge with children. She is great at redirection and carries herself very well. We went to her going away party and it was amazing to see all of the other families she’s babysat for there. It’s really a testament to her and how good she is. Without a doubt, I recommend her.”
