Hello, My name is Melissa :) I have been an Educator with Excellence in Care Family Day Care for 18 months now and enjoy my work. Before this I was a relief Teacher Aide for my childrens School. I have a Certificate III in Children's Services and Edcuation Support, and hold a current blue card and first aid certificate (which includes Asthma and Anaphylaxis).
I accpet children from 6 weeks up until school aged. I love to take the children on outings and get them involved with the community (we currently visit the local RSPCA and help out where we can). I attend my local scheme playgroup where the children can mix with those of similar ages and offer a school readiness program for children aged 3 and over.

Melissa is warm and engaging and delivers a quality family day care service. Her home is well equipped with a range of toys to stimulate children of various ages and offers a safe and comfortable environment. My son started with Melissa when he was 9 months old and he is always content and in good spirits when I pick him up, indicating he has had an enjoyable, stress free day. Melissa also text messages photos and video updates through the day and records learning activities in individual folders for each child. She is enthusiastic and undertakes a range of activities with the children e.g., walks around the lake, indoor play centre excursions, play dates, arts and crafts. I would highly recommend Melissa's Family Day Care.
