Meet Melanie
- Has a car
I am an adult woman who has watched children of varying ages and abilities since the age of seven. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and Crisis Prevention. I have experience working with all ages from 0 to 26. I am an undergrad in behavioral health psychology. I have over twenty years of working with children with autism and other developmental disabilities, just not as a paid employee, as I have volunteered and raised children with autism and other intellectual disabilities. I can care for typical children, but to me, all children are "just children", each with their own unique and specified needs, wants, and personalities. My goal while watching children is to allow them to have the best possible experience in an environment where they feel safe, cared for, heard, and happy. I understand the need for parents and caregivers to feel confident in their sitter. I have Read more a clear and clean background from the DOJ and FBI and am legally cleared to work with children. I will undergo any other background checks caregivers or parents require. I have worked as a Behavioral Technician with children in their homes and schools. I have no issue caring for children who have higher needs, including those who are physically aggressive. I do not mind changing diapers and helping with toileting needs for all children, no matter their age. I am willing to cook and prepare meals if desired. I love to play with and alongside children and understand proper boundaries for all involved. I am a judgment-free zone for children and their families, and I respect all people, cultures, and boundaries. I look forward to helping families with their childcare needs.
