Meet Melissa

I have tons of experience with all ages of children, including children with special needs. I have worked in a pediatric hospital (new born- 18) and nannied for a few families while I was in my child development classes for college. I also have a rambunctious 2 year old niece, 5 year old sister and 5 yrld nephew. i also have a huffy preteen Sister turning 13. I love them all quite a bit, and am lucky enough to care for them pretty often. I had a FTP with a Family and their 7mld premature daughter, but unfortunately Mom lost her position... So, I did as well. At the moment, I watch a few oncall families. Including A family of 5 girls. They were my first family with twins. Ultimately, I am looking for a Live- in position that would allow me to make the jump and move to Oregon. Read more I am currently in southern California, but for years OR has been calling me. My landlord made the decision to remodel and gut the place. Seeing as I need to move, the moment seems ideal. I was hoping a live-in position would allow me to learn the area and plant my roots a little. I look forward to meeting my new family, if you'll have me. :) * I do have a small incredibly well behaved dog child. If there is a great inconvenience, she can stay with grandma. :[ *
