Hi there, I'm Melanie :) I am the second oldest of 5 sisters. I have an extremely family oriented background and have been babysitting since the age of 12. My husband is active duty and I am former active duty. I am currently expecting my first in October so as I transition out of the workforce, I am looking to help families with their children! I have babysat/nannied for countless families, I am a prior lifeguard/swim instructor and have had my CPR/first aid cert many times over the years(not current but will update after pregnancy), and I have served in my local church as oversight in our children's ministry ranging from ages 0-11 for the past 3+ years with many other experiences prior to this. I am well trusted within my church and military community as a babysitter/caretaker and have many references. I am an extremely clean and organized person as well as love to teach! Please reach out if I seem like a good fit for your little one(s)!
I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has a genuine love for caring for children, and it shows in everything she does. Her attention to detail, patience, and thoughtfulness give me complete peace of mind whenever my children are in her care. She creates a safe, nurturing environment where my kids feel loved, supported, and truly seen. What makes her especially remarkable is how she goes above and beyond to make every experience fun and meaningful for the children. She brings so much creativity, joy, and positive energy into their day, and my kids absolutely adore her. Finding someone you can fully trust with your children is priceless, and I feel incredibly grateful to have her in our lives. Any family would be fortunate to have her caring for their children.
