Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • 2 years paid experience
  • Nanny in Blacksburg, VA 24060

Meet Melanie

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I'm a student at VT on a break from school for a few years and looking for a job in between my travels! My availability is all day every day except around lunch time 11-1 as I walk dogs as a side job during that time, however I'm open to negotiating. I don't have any professional experience as an actual nanny, but I have plenty of experience working with children: I've had a job as children's summer camp leader, and have years of volunteer experience at after school daycare-type organizations and churches. I've also worked as an SAT math tutor for high school students so I can easily assist your children with any school work they have :) Available to start ASAP

Melanie has done dog walking for a company and was able to take care of my 2 high energy dogs over a long weekend. She also helped with our Guinea pigs and did a good job of cleaning up and preparing our house for our arrival. She has cats so she likes all animals!
