About Melanie

Hello! My name is Melanie and I bring 6+ years of experience in childcare. I have experience caring for all ages from 4 months to 17-year-olds. My first childcare job was at an overnight Girl Scout Camp in San Diego from 2018 to 2022. I was a counselor for children ages 8-17. During the 2021 and 2022 summers, I served as the Teen Leadership Coordinator, teaching teens 13-17 how to be leaders. While I was in graduate school, I worked at a temp Nanny/Babysitting agency part-time. I then worked privately with families ever since. I like working with kids because I learn from them just as much as they learn from me. It's refreshing to work with kids because I love their perspective on life. In my spare time, I like to listen to music, go camping, and spend time with my loved ones. My top three skills are conflict resolution, time management, and collaboration. Let me know if you have any questions; I'm happy to answer them. Hope to talk with you soon!
