About Melinda

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm a warm, responsible, and experienced caregiver with a Bachelor's in Public Health and over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience, including supporting a disabled family member. I'm calm, reliable, and genuinely enjoy working with kids, helping them feel safe, supported, and engaged through a mix of structure, patience, and fun. I'm also comfortable with routines, emotional support, and day-to-day caregiving needs. I am currently available for short-term nanny positions through early August, as I will be starting my Master's in Public Health this fall at Yale University. I'd love to connect with families looking for a dependable and thoughtful caregiver for the summer! I love working with kids because every day is different, and I enjoy being part of their learning, routines, and little personality breakthroughs. I naturally bring a calm, patient energy, and I like creating an environment where kids feel supported and engaged.
