Meet Melanie

  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! I am a recent MFA graduate and have lived in NYC for almost 3 years. I have babysat for as long as I can remember because I honestly just think kids are a blast to be around! I was previously in the military before grad school so I am familiar with first aid and making sure your little ones are safe. I also have lots of experience babysitting my baby niece and nephew so dirty diapers and bottles are not a problem! The current family I sit for have a 4 year old boy who loves everything cars, Transformers, Star Wars, you name it. I am enthusiastic and enjoy keeping kids entertained, even if that includes singing even though I'm not so great at it!
