Meet Melanie

  • Comfortable with pets

I am a sophomore at The George Washington University studying political science and journalism. I have been babysitting for seven years, and a nanny for two different families over the past three years. I have babysat children ranging from newborns to teenagers, in addition to babysitting pets. I have also spent the past two summers at a sleep away camp as a lifeguard and a counselor. In high school I taught swim lessons to both groups, and private swim lessons to children with autism. I am friendly, nurturing, responsible, and outgoing, and love baking, telling bedtime stories and arts and crafts.
