Hi, My name is Madelyne! I’m a reliable, creative, and attentive caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and education. I currently work in education and prevention for a nonprofit, where I support individuals and communities through learning, safety, and well-being initiatives. I’m also in school studying consciousness and psychology, which deepens my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and supportive communication. I have hands-on babysitting experience with children as young as 1 year old and am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time, depending on their ages and needs. I bring a calm, grounded presence and genuinely enjoy engaging kids through music, art, and outdoor activities. With several years of experience in restaurant operations, I’m highly knowledgeable about food safety and allergy management, so you can feel confident your child’s dietary needs will be handled with care. I am CPR certified and prioritize safety in all situations. I’m also happy to support your household beyond childcare. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all kinds and enjoy spending time with animals just as much as I do with kids. Additionally, I’m open to assisting elder family members with companionship and light support. I’m glad to help with errands, light cleaning, and general household tasks to make your day-to-day life easier. In my free time, I love gardening, hiking, spending time at the park, and caring for my tortoise—so I’m always happy to encourage outdoor play and curiosity about nature. I’m also comfortable helping with meal prep, routines, and bedtime. I strive to create a warm, safe, and engaging environment where children feel supported and parents feel at ease.

Madelyne is the best! She is sooo good with our kids and is a total ray of sunshine. She takes care of our 16 month twins boys who are high octane energy. You’ll love Madelyne just like we do :)
