Greetings, my name is Melanie and I love working with children- their energy, creativity, imagination, and their simple approach to everyday life intrigues and inspires me. I have been a Nanny for 12 years and have experience caring for singletons, multiples, and children with special needs. Some of my hobbies are cooking, visiting museums, reading, and creating art! I believe myself to be a naturally organized person and have excellent communication skills. I have many talents and skills that I like to share with children. My educational background is in Fine Art: Drawing and Painting/K-12 Art Education. I love to cook and bake! I believe myself to be a naturally organized person, and I am also extremely nurturing, reliable, and responsible. I have a profound interest to expose children to the arts. Whether it Read more be museum ventures, making crafts out of straws, glitter, and empty toilet paper rolls, and even making sculptures of out of cloud dough! I'm never afraid to bring out the "big kid" and silliness in me for the sake of a little ones laugh. Thank you for viewing my profile. I hope you will consider me a suitable candidate to take care of your children.
