About Melanie
Experience: 10 yrs
My name is Melanie and I was a Teacher for 20 years' .. I left teaching 2. 5 years' ago. I am looking to supplement my income. Working with children is always something I have enjoyed! I am CPR and first aid trained and have my kids and adult yoga certifications. I love the outdoors, good healthy clean meals and love being active. I married my best friend August 2023. I have been told that I am efficient, a good communicator, kind, fun loving, honest and up front. I have a can do attitude and believe in child centered learning and will always come down to your child's height while talking to them. I come with great references.

My daughter was a little over 1 years old at the time we hired Melanie. Melanie was punctual, communicative, helpful, and patient. She kept to the routine we had established, which was awesome. As first time parents, my husband and I appreciated any helpful tips she had when it came to figuring out toddlers, and loved any suggestions she had for activities for toddlers. In addition, she helped with errands when we needed help with it, which she would take care of during my daughter's nap time. We moved to a different city, but we would definitely hire Melanie again if we could.
