My name is Melanie and I am a mother of three girls and have 27 years experience as a YMCA Child Care Director, I believe I have an extensive background in the child care field. My background includes raising my three children (22, 21, 15)and have managed / supervised / planned summer camps and school age child programs. I am currently working with special needs children as a certified teacher assistant for a Eastern Suffolk Boces in Sayville. I also just finished a nanny job for a family with an infant and 3-year-old which I did for the past year. While watching your children , I promise to give them 100 percent undivided attention. I am truly a compassionate and motivated individual who strives to make children happy. It's my goal to make your child feel, safe, secure and loved the time while I am there with them. I would love to have the opportunity to meet your family and discuss my qualifications in more detail.

Melanie is the best you’ll find! She has been caring for our family (3 year old boy and now 1 year old baby girl) for a year now and we are so lucky to have found her. She is the only caretaker I trust to watch my children when my husband and I go out of town. She always goes above and beyond with my children and will do fun and exciting activities with them (games, art projects, music, etc) and they are always sooooo happy to see her!! Melanie has become a part of our family and we are so lucky to have her.
