About Melody

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been babysitting children since I was 12 years old. I started off babysitting for my next door neighbor who has a daughter who was around 8 months old. I am still babysitting her, plus they have another daughter who I babysit as well. I do that off and on as needed. I also have babysat for the last 5 summers for a lady who has two daughters as well, ages 9 and 11. I worked at a childcare facility for about 2 months and I was a substitute assistant teacher. I also worked at a daycare/preschool. I work with kids ranging from 1-5 years of age. I am passionate about working with children because they are our next generation; they need people in their lives who can influence them to live to their full potential. They are kids, they need to be kids and stay kids and act like kids. They need good role models in their life who will help them through this crazy world. I love seeing children learn and grow. They always make my day whenever I am with them. I feel like children show this wo

Melody's passion for kids truly shows. She constantly tries to find new activities to keep the kids engaged. She is very punctual and dependable as has helped us on short notice. Melody watches our kids while we are at work. It's always difficult to be away from them, but we feel more at ease when Melody is with them. She works hard to keep them active and entertained. The kids absolutely love it when Melody comes over!
