About Melanie

34 years old Speaks English
Hi families! I'm trained and experienced with looking after babies and children on both a professional and personal level. I have a Diploma in children's services and have worked in both preschool settings and as a family day carer. I also have three children of my own. A 8yr old boy, 6yr old daughter and 2 yr old boy. I feel confident and comfortable in my abilities as a carer, providing endless affection, education and safety. I'm currently looking at doing some nannying work for a family needing one toddler minded. I will be having my youngest with me also and I thought it would be nice for the two children to have each other's company :) As a mother and carer I'm passionate about getting down on the floor and playing with the children, getting excited with them and their achievements, reading to them, heading outdoors, being silly and making sure they're feeling safe, loved and happy. Happy to discuss things more in depth with any families interested in working together. Thanks for reading, Mel :)

Mel has been nannying for us for 6-7 months now, one day a week. She started when my daughter was 4 months old and now she’s 11 months. My daughter absolutely adores Mel and her son and lights up as soon as they walk in. Mel has been so accommodating to my daughters routine and the way we like to do things and always double checks if something happens out of the ordinary. She’s always going above and beyond to entertain the kids by taking them to educational classes and down to the park when it’s sunny. She is so warm and I felt instantly comfortable to leave my daughter with her as soon as we met. Would highly recommend Mel if you are looking for someone to love and care for your child like she does her own!
