About Melanie

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! My name is Melanie, and I have a deep passion for working with children. Before starting my current master's program in social work, I worked as a full-time nanny for three years, caring for a child from ages 2. 5 to 6. That experience helped me develop patience, creativity, and a nurturing approach to childcare. I believe in fostering a fun, safe, and engaging environment where kids can learn, grow, and express themselves. My background in social work gives me a strong understanding of child development, emotional well-being, and positive behavior support. Additionally, I prioritize health and wellness, so I love incorporating outdoor play, movement, and nutritious meals into daily routines. I'm reliable, responsible, and love connecting with families to provide the best care possible. Whether it's homework help, playtime, or bedtime routines, I'm here to make life easier for parents while creating a loving and supportive space for children.
