Hi! My name is Melanie. I am a 22 year old mother to a two year old and a college student. I have experience caring for newborns up until preschool age. My goal as a babysitter is to provide them with the best of care and to help them engage in fun activities. I am willing to do light house work and meal preparations if needed. I can also help with any errands such as target curbside pickup, groceries, and more. I am also trilingual (American Sign Language, Mandarin). I have taught many children including my son basic ASL which helps with speech development and comprehension. I have experience with bottle feeding/breastfeeding, baby led weaning, and sleep training. I am also covid vaccinated! Overall, I am very out-going, reliable, and willing to help!
