My name is Melissa, and I am passionate about child development and creating engaging learning environments. Since August 2023, I have been teaching high school students in Leander ISD, covering subjects like nutrition, child development, personal finance, fashion design, and career readiness. Before that, I taught elementary students from 2019 to 2022, managing a classroom of 40 and tailoring lessons to meet diverse needs. With 12 years of part-time babysitting experience, I have cared for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers, providing dedicated care with love and energy. I am now looking to transition into a full-time nanny role, where I can offer personalized, structured, and fun learning experiences in a home setting. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, going to concerts, and spending time with family and friends—including my two cats and my firefighter partner. I would love the opportunity to support your family with my passion for childcare and education!
