About Melinda

Experience: 10 yrs

Bringing Alpine Adventures & Heartfelt Care to Every Day Hi! I'm a career nanny with 15+ years of professional experience caring for children from newborns (including multiples) through elementary school. I've worked with families around the world and believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, kindness, and outdoor adventure. Living in the mountains, I love spending every season outside-skiing, hiking, biking, exploring creeks, building snowmen, and discovering nature alongside little ones. I believe fresh air, imaginative play, and a sense of adventure help children grow into confident, happy humans. Safety is always my priority, and I have extensive experience caring for children with medical needs, including diabetes, epilepsy, severe food allergies, ADHD, and bipolar disorder. My goal is to create a nurturing, engaging environment where children feel safe, loved, and free to learn while giving parents complete peace of mind.

Mindy is everything we could have hoped for in a babysitter. While we were visiting Vail, she watched our six-month-old daughter so we could play golf. She was punctual, professional, and warm from the start. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day, which gave us such peace of mind. Two of those photos are now the backgrounds on our phones! She was also wonderful with our three Chihuahuas, including one who usually takes time to warm up to new people. We felt completely comfortable leaving our daughter and dogs in Mindy’s care and would happily book her again.
