A little bit about me

I am still rather new to Oklahoma, I moved from Denver, CO to Norman 5 months ago. I worked as an educator for the Denver Art Museum for almost two years and am continuing to pursue my career in art education. I have been a full time nanny for almost a year now but have had several part time opportunities. Currently I am working for a family in Norman helping with their 2 month old and 3 year old. I am open to talk about how my schedule can work around your needs!

"Mel is very kind and caring and has been such a wonderful help to my family! She is a great communicator and has always been very reliable for my family. She helped my kids get ready for school in the mornings and did a wonderful job of making sure they completed all of their morning tasks while still allowing them to have fun during their time with her. She does not hesitate to jump in and get a helpful routine in place with the kids. We were so lucky to work with her and will miss her dearly this next year!"

"Mel is everything you want in a nanny. She genuinely loves kids. She is responsible, conscientuous, hard working, honest, forthcoming in communications, trust worthy, lacks any sense of entitlement and our kids will be devastated for weeks after she is gone. They know she loves them and she's managed to allow all 3 of our chikdren with very different personalities and needs to feel that love. She flexed with us during COVID lockdown and was teaching 3 kids in 3 different grades online. I've never seen her sweat the small stuff. She's got her priorities straight and we will miss her sorely. She is by far the best of all the nannies we've had. This is who you have been looking for, I promise."
