In 2011 I retired to take care of my then soon to be grandson who was born with Hypohdrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia. He lived with me and I was his F/T care-provider for 6 1/2 years, also home schooled him pre-k though kindergarten. Last summer he moved away and I have found I have a lot of free time.

I am a nurturer by nature. I love children, animals, mother nature and being able to maybe make a difference no matter how small.

Hi my name is Melanie I’ve been around little kids my whole life. I am the first child in my family which came with many responsibilities like caring and looking out for my baby cousins (girls/ boys), sisters and our family pets( cats/dogs/ hamsters)! Making sure there was always fun and safe activities ahead of us as well as a good snacks/meals. Now that a lot of my cousins and sisters are older I am very thankful to say that I was a big part of their childhood and was able to teach them so much. I have been a volunteer at my local church for 5 years over the weekends where I am a T.A and work with kids ages 5-11. I have also been an explorer with the Ventura County Sheriffs Department for 6 years now and we work with teenagers ages 13-21. We educate them in law enforcement as well as teaching them responsibility, team work, CPR/ first aid and most importantly how to have fun and make long lasting friends! I was a gymnast for 5 years and a volunteered coach for 2 years where I worked with toddlers over the weekends! This was something very heart warming to me because I was able to share and teach them and their parents a sport I am very passionate about! I have always had a love for kids that’s why one day I hope and pray to have kids of my own!

I have three years of experience working with children as a paid babysitter. During this time, I have taken care of children of various ages, from 6 weeks to 15 years old. I’ve also worked at two different daycare/preschools as a teacher which is where I currently work. I also have three younger siblings that I took care of a lot growing up. That helped me a lot with babysitting because I already knew how to do meal preparations, bedtime routines, homework help and engage the children in fun activities. What sets me apart as a babysitter is my patience, reliability, and ability to connect with children. I enjoy playing games, reading stories, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for them.

I have my CPR and First Aid certificates, to ensure that your child is in safe and good hands at all times.
