About Melanie

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I grew up in Danville with my four siblings plus two foster children, my parents fostered children, mostly babies, for 30 years. I started babysitting at 11 and by the time I was in high school I started working with children with special needs at school and outside, like when I was a swim coach for the JR Special Olympics in the late 90's. When I was in college I was a preschool teacher at a Montessori school and earned my AA degree in Child Development, I am also a certified Montessori teacher's assistant. I have nannied for a few families in my younger years, including my nephew and niece before I had child of my own. I live with my husband and two teenage sons. I love little kids and would love to help take care of your little ones!
