About Melanie

Hi families! My name is Mel, and I have over 15 years of professional childcare experience. I specialize in providing calm, structured, and dependable care, particularly for children ages 4 and up, where I naturally connect and create a positive, relaxed environment. I am currently available for date/late nights, evenings, weekends, occasional overnight care, and short-term or visiting families. I also welcome families visiting the Baton Rouge area, including those staying in hotels or nearby accommodations, who are looking for a trusted, experienced sitter while they enjoy an evening out. For short-term or hotel stays, I am open to caring for younger children on a case-by-case basis depending on needs. I focus on in-home care, routines, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for children. "Best matched with families who value communication, consistency, and respectful scheduling. Conveniently located near L'Auberge
