Meet Melany

  • Speaks English, Italian, and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

I speak 3 languages; Spanish, English and Italian. I'm from Guatemala, I'm an actress, singer and dancer. I used to volunteered at a school in East Harlem for children with disabilities. I love kids. I'm responsible, reliable, patient, caring, with principles. I've worked for a family in Boston with an 18 month old girl and a 6 year old boy, picking them after school, preparing their meals, cleaning after them, teaching them spanish. I also worked for a Turkish family and travel with them to Turkey. I was taking care of their 10 year old daughter, helping her with homework, swimming, teaching her english, taking care of her full time, and their 16 year old son. This summer I worked for another Turkish family, taking care of their 3 and 11 year old sons. We traveled in the US, I helped them driving, and organizing different activities to do every Read more day, taking care of both sons, helping with homework, recreative activities and attending to their needs. I also traveled to Turkey with them. I've babysat for 7 different families in NY and Brooklyn. With kids from 3 months old to 14 years old. I have great references. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Looking forward to hear from you! Best, Melany

I found Melany to be a very straight forward warm and helpful person. Due to the amount of snow, I had to hold my appointments at home and she was discrete yet totally engaging with my LO of 17mos. I look forward to calling upon her again. SBB
