Hi! I’m Melody. I have 4+ years of experience working with children as an after school youth leader and I was a special education classroom aide for a year. I also have 10 years of experience sitting for household pets, I love animals. I hold a master’s degree in school counseling, so I am passionate about caring for children and families.
“Enthusiastic and caring! Felt very comfortable leaving my baby in Melody’s care.”
I am 19 years old and just graduated high school. I am bilingual in Spanish and English. I love working with kids especially with the small ones. I am energetic when I play with them. I’m always willing to play with them whether it’s playing dressing up or fake cooking or even running around to chase them. I have been volunteering at church with the kids for two years. I worked at a daycare for the two years as a teacher helper. I did an internship being in a kindergarten class as an aid for the summer 2025 and 2026. I have a CPR/AED online certification. I am looking to work as a babysitter in the weekdays and weekends. I also have my drivers licenses. You can send me a message if you have any questions!
I am an outgoing college student and already have over five years of experience with caregiving for children of all ages! I have held two longterm caregiving jobs. The first was a combination of nannying three children (ages 2,7, and 12) and doing housework (laundry,dishes,orginization) a few times a week. The second was nannying for two children (ages 9 and 13) overnight into the next morning (packing lunch, cooking meals, driving kids to school) up to five times per week. Aside from that I have had various babysitting, housesitting, and pet sitting jobs as needed. I pride myself in creating a comfortable, safe, and positive environment for every family. I love to play games, do crafts, and talk to kids about whatever is on their mind. I love to have fun but I also know how to enforce rules and keep order in a household. I am willing and able to supervise swimming, run errands, do light housekeeping, and aid kids in their schoolwork if needed. I hope to make a positive impact in your family’s life!
I have 20+ years in housekeeping and have great reputations with all the people I’ve worked with in the past. Every day I come in with a great attitude and wanting to make my clients day by attending to their housekeeping needs.
“Lupe was phenomenal! We will look forward to working with her in the future!”
Hi! I’m Leslie, I understand how important it is for parents to feel their child is truly cared for. I’m naturally patient, and detail-oriented (comes with being a paralegal) and I bring that same energy into childcare. I love creating calm, safe routines, being attentive to emotional needs, and making sure families feel supported. I’m big on communication, I handle unexpected situations with a clear head, and I genuinely enjoy helping little ones feel secure, understood, and loved. If you’re looking for someone dependable, and easy to work with, I’ve got you!
“Very good with small children, highly recommend her!”
