Landra Melton

dedicated childcare professional with over five years of experience working with infants and toddlers in a childcare setting. I am currently pursuing my degree in Child Development and have a strong passion for supporting children’s growth, development, communication, and individual needs. My experience has taught me to be patient, observant, compassionate, and consistent when working with children and their families.

I have experience supporting developmental skills, encouraging positive behaviors, helping children navigate emotions and transitions, and creating safe and structured environments.
