Meet Melanie
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I have a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and currently I work for an agency as a Clinician at a private agency. I am a female in my 30's. I have experience working with children as a therapist as well as a prior nanny. I became a babysitter/nanny because I enjoy being with kids and playing a part in their healthy development. I have a good balance as a nanny between setting appropriate limits and having fun. Also, I am very physically active in my daily life, so I have the endurance and energy for playing with children. I am loving and kind. I love animals as well and feel completely comfortable with pets.
