About Melanie

I am a stay at home mom of 2 boys ages 2 and 4. I'm looking for kids similar in ages to care for in my home part time. We live on a large ranch in Petaluma (we have a small secure gated yard but have access to explore 500 acres) and love exploring with our dog. We do homeschool for an hour or two each day. We mostly just lean into what our current interest are! I'm an avid believer in letting kids be kids and love to watch them learn through play. I think it's really important for children to be outside as much as possible. We very minimal screen time and usually save it for a special family occasion. We eat all organic healthy meals and I would be more than happy to prepare meals for your child too! I was a professional special needs nanny for 5 years before I had my own babies! Taking care of little people is all I have ever known and my greatest passion.
