About Melanie

Experience: 20 yrs

** Availability begins in August** Nurturing children and supporting families has been my professional focus for over 30 years. As a Retired Registered Nurse, a Certified Nurse Midwife as well as a mother of four adult children, I offer a calm, fun, patient, and highly reliable approach to childcare for up to four children. I am fully prepared for any situation with active CPR Training and First Aid Training. Because I love keeping children active I enjoy facilitating creative play through puzzles, educational games, and outdoor sports. I prioritize clear communication by following your preferred method, whether through daily verbal updates or texts. I am comfortable enforcing your household rules and am happy to assist with meal preparation and carpooling . My goal is to make a meaningful, positive impact on your children's lives every single day. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's journey. My availability may be flexible.

Melanie offered me and my family the best support we could have ever asked to receive. She was with my 6-year-old son while I was in the hospital giving birth. My son fell in love with her right away and had a blast on all the adventures they did together. She understands children and interacts with them in a way that is respectful and fun. She stayed with us in our home and offered me and my newborn postpartum care. Any issue I had postpartum, Melanie knew how to help and I don’t know what I would have done without her. We love her and any family would be lucky to have her be part of their children’s lives.
