My name is Melanie Ritter and I am a student at UNC Wilmington. I am originally from New York but decided to move to North Carolina for school. I am now in love with the area and have decided to stay throughout my breaks (including summer). I first started babysitting when I was 12 years old for my neighbor's two little girls. That first experience opened my eyes to an amazing world. I now have just over 8 years of experience from six different families. The children I babysat and nannied for ranged in age from new born to about twelve years old, with many families having multiple children in each. I even have experience with special needs children. I find kids to be so amazing and that is why I love the job so much. In the future when I finish my education, I want to work directly with Read more children in need as a social worker.
