About Melina

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi! I'm Melina. I'm 23, originally from Argentina, and caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I'm bilingual (English & Spanish), super patient, and love creating a safe, loving space where kids can learn, play, and feel at home. I've cared for little ones of all ages, from a 6-month-old baby to busy toddlers, 3-year-old twins, and even a sweet 10-year-old. I don't smoke, I have my own car, and while I'm not CPR certified, I do know how to respond in emergency situations. I know how much trust it takes to leave your children with someone, and I don't take that lightly. I'd love to connect and see if I'm the right fit for your family!

Melina has babysat for us twice now, and she is wonderful. She is kind-hearted, responsive, and a confident caregiver. Our 6 month old was so happy to see her again! We will continue to call her when we need a sitter.
