I grew up from a big family of 11. I helped my Mom raise and care my siblings. As they grew up I also help care for my nieces and nephews. Kids and Pets usually get along with me as I am a vibrant, nurturing and patient person. I love to sew, cook, dance and craft.

I’m a caring, patient, and reliable person who loves working with children. I’ve taken care of younger siblings and family members. I’m good at keeping kids engaged, safe, and having fun. I enjoy planning simple activities, helping with snacks, maintaining routines, and creating a calm environment. Families can rely on me to be responsible and communicative.
Hello, my name is Melody. I have several years of hands-on childcare experience, including caring for my younger brother since infancy. This has given me strong experience with infants and young children, including daily routines, supervision, and creating a safe, structured environment. I am patient, responsible, and dependable, and I truly enjoy supporting children’s growth and development. I am also willing to assist with light housekeeping and household organization.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
