Hey, my name is Mellanie! I go by Mell. I'm a psychology student at Eastern Kentucky University, set to graduate in Fall 2026. I have worked with kiddos in a wide range of environments such as schools, applied behavior analysis facilities, and in homes as a babysitter and RBT. I care deeply about little hearts and minds, and would love to get to know your little ones!

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moment working with a kiddo by far, has to be the time I was working with a two year old client in a therapy setting. She had ASD and communicated mostly with leading and guiding and ASL (basics). We were practicing sounds "buh," "eee," and "wuh" on the swing. I got the chance to hear her say each sound that she had never said with me before, several times. I immediately reinforced these sounds by swinging her high on the swing and praising her.
