About Melinda
Experience: 7 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! Let me briefly introduce myself, My name is Melinda and I am 27 years old. I live in East Hampton, CT and currently finishing my Social Work Degree. While in school I have been very fortunate to work and create wonderful relationships with many wonderful families providing my services being either a Nanny or Babysitter. I have worked with newborns and children of all various ages. I am a very outgoing person and love being completely hands-on with kids, I love doing crafts, games, reading, being outside, or simply using our imaginations! I can be very useful when it comes to kids needing help with homework, preparing a meal, or tidying-up! please be assured that I will follow any rules or core values you and your family may have or any specific care you are seeking for your kids! I am CNA and CPR certified through American Red Cross, I also do not smoke, and I have my own reliable transportation. I am also very comfortable with animals!!

Melinda is an amazing babysitter that wish I would have found earlier. She came to our family after having a bad experience and instantly bonded with both of my kids, quickly becoming their most favorite babysitter! She is attentive, creative, and fun. She often does crafts with them and always takes them outside for hours at a time. I honestly don't have enough good things to say about Melinda. Its very difficult to find a sitter who goes above and beyond what you expect of them but Melinda does because she genuinely loves kids!!
