About Melody

Experience: 8 yrs

I am an MPH student at NYU and hold a B. S. in Medical Anthropology and Global Health. I have a passion for serving marginalized and vulnerable populations, and I also understand how tremendously important early life experiences are. I work to have a positive and lasting impact on every child I have the privilege of coming in contact with. I have been looking after children for most of my life. I have had paid experience for 8 years. I love children especially babies! I enjoy creating a fun, educational and stimulating environment for children. I am CPR certified and I have extensive knowledge of child safety precautions. I am fine with friendly dogs and cats in the home; just no reptiles please! Aside from ensuring that your child is safe in my care; my goal is to cultivate and inspire ingenuity and curiosity within your child.

I had a great experience with Melody during her first job with us! She did a wonderful job with the pickup and drop-off, and my child felt comfortable and happy in her care. She was punctual and friendly, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to working with her again!
