Hi! My name is Melanie and I have been babysitting for 6+ years and love working with children. I am CPR certified and Red Cross Babysitting certified and feel comfortable working with both babies and school-aged children. I love playing games, planning activities, and playing outdoors. I also love to cook and wouldn't mind performing any necessary household chores. I have babysat large families, families with twins, and multiple families at once. Above all, I love kids and planning fun activities outside. I recently graduated from Boston college and have moved to the DC area for an AmeriCorps service program in health care. I work full time during the week but have availability Tuesday and Thursday mornings as well as weekends all day/night! Please contact me if you are looking for an occasional sitter! I would love to meet more families in The District!
