Hi! I'm Melanie. A dependable, compassionate caregiver with a passion for supporting families by providing both exceptional child care and attentive pet care. With 20 years of experience, I understand the unique needs of children and furry friends alike, and I'm here to help make your daily routine easier and more enjoyable. I've worked with children from infancy through school age, offering engaging activities, educational support and nurturing care in a safe, structured environment. I'm also experienced with dogs, and am happy to walk, feed, play with, and provide companionship to your furry family members. Parents and pet owners I've worked with describe me as trustworthy, calm under pressure, and someone who truly connects with every member of the household.

Ms Melanie is fabulous. Our girls love her. After our first interaction with her we knew she was our top pick going forward. She didn’t just watch after our girls, she had fun with them and made it educational. She took them on walks and would discuss the different things they encountered (bugs, flowers, birds etc…). They played games in the house and if it was during the school year she was a big help with homework. Our girls looked forward to having her there and that made us so happy and relaxed whenever we left them together. I highly recommend Ms Melanie.
