Hello, my name is Melanie and I have just graduated with my Masters in Occupational Therapy from Barry University in Miami. I have relocated back to NJ/NY area. I plan to babysit in the meantime (date nights and summer work primarily) while I obtain my license. I plan to do occasional date nights while working in the fall as well. The past two years, I was working part-time as a special needs counselor for the YMCA at Silver Ridge in Davie and was a nanny to various families (most with a child with special needs). I have had over 14 years of working, volunteering, and interning with children of numerous ages and kinds. I want to work with disabled children one day in hospitals and elementary schools. I have worked as a counselor and babysitter on and off since the age of 13. I am very patient, responsible, and caring. Read more Overall, I love children and I am a really lively person.
