About Melanie
Experience: 7 yrs
Hello! My name is Mel and have been babysitting children since I was 12 after receiving my babysitting certification from WNC. I have 5 younger siblings and have helped care for them as well as 6 other foster children coming in and out of our home at different times. I have plenty of experience with nannying and babysitting kids of all ages from 0-13. I am comfortable with caring for multiple children at once and have also helped care for mildly disabled children. In addition to nannying, I also helped tutor multiple children while studying abroad in Spain. I am married and we have one hypoallergenic dog named Romeo. I love to get outside and play with kids. I have always grown very attached to the kids I care for and I hope to get the chance to build a lasting friendship with you and your children. I am an open book and happy to answer any questions!

Melanie is amazing and quickly became part of our family. There aren’t a lot of people you immediately want to trust with your babies, but Melanie quickly put us at ease and knows the gift she has in her hands. She quickly became part of our close circle and would recommend her to anyone nervous about leaving their young ones! She is communicative and truly understanding. I am so thankful for her grace and patience not only with my little one - but me!
