Melanie is the best! We hired her for 3 months to take care of our newborn baby girl A. as a night nurse and she exceeded our expectations. She is so patient and kind and gave A. so much love. As soon as Melanie would take her in her arms A. would calm down and just stare into her eyes! Melanie sleep trained, fed, changed diapers and soothed, as well as other taking on other tasks outside of her scope. We wouldn't hesitate to hire Melanie again!
