About Melinda

Experience: 6 yrs

I'm looking for temporary and/or part time childcare work while I am in the process of an academic job search after taking some time off. I have experience with all ages of children; I babysat in college for numerous families with children from 6 weeks to 11 years old. I've also tutored a variety of subjects from elementary to high school, and can help with homework. Among other activities, I enjoy playing games, working puzzles, crafts, reading, and singing/dancing. I also enjoy cooking, so am happy to prepare snacks or meals.

Melinda took the challenge of baby-sitting our 3 girls who are all 5 years old and younger. My girls loved her and look forward to the next time she gets to baby-sit. Melinda has baby-sat for us a few times now and I was really impressed when she showed up one evening with paper bags for the girls to color and design to make puppets. She is very creative and we are glad we found such a wonderful trustworthy person to care for our wonderful girls. I would recommend Melinda to anyone. Thanks, Erika
