Hi, I'm Mel! For seven years I've been the person kids ask for by name and parents breathe easier around. I match each child's energy: calm and cozy for a quiet one, big and silly for a wild one. I help kids build confidence and name big feelings through creative play and real conversation. I provide nurturing, child-led care for every stage, from newborn snuggles to big-kid adventures. I'm comfortable caring for your little one independently: bottle feeding, diapering, nap routines, tummy time, play, walks, bottle sterilizing, baby laundry, and light tidying. Calm, dependable, and dog-friendly, with reliable transportation and a non-smoker. I show up early, communicate clearly, and never miss a booking. Tell me about your little one: what makes them light up and what helps them settle. Let's find a rhythm that works for your family.
She was wonderful! My 3 year old son and her instantly clicked and she sent us updates all throughout the day that made us feel comforted and at ease! Would recommend and we are excited to use her again in the future!
