About Melanie

I'm a patient, caring, attentive, and adaptable nanny who genuinely enjoys being around children. I've been caring for kids since I was a teenager, from occasional babysitting to working as a live-in au pair in Italy for a baby boy and toddler girl. I've also tutored children ages 6-10 in English and Spanish. I naturally connect with children and love encouraging their creativity, supporting emotional development, and helping with schoolwork. I believe in teaching through play, modeling positive values, and creating a safe, nurturing space they can rely on. I respect each family's routines and prioritize open, honest communication with parents. In my free time, I enjoy reading about psychology, practicing yoga, traveling, and discovering new places to eat. I'm also comfortable with pets and happy to assist however I can.
