A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Melaina—a 19-year-old from Buffalo, NY, and a part-time student at CU Boulder studying Political Science. I’ve always loved being around kids & have spent over five years babysitting two energetic boys from the time they were newborns through early school age. I’m creative, patient, and genuinely enjoy finding fun ways to keep little ones engaged—whether that’s painting, drawing, playing outside, or building fun forts. When I’m not studying or painting, I try to prioritize outdoor time. I’m looking for a part-time nanny position (with room for more hours if needed) & would love to bring my enthusiasm, creativity, & care to your family!

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love getting outside to play sports, go on walks, or explore a park, but I’m just as happy spending a quiet afternoon reading books or doing crafts together. I think it’s great for kids to have a balance — burning off energy outdoors, then slowing down with something creative or hands-on inside. I also believe healthy competition can be fun for all & instill important values in children. Whether we’re kicking a soccer ball, doing a craft, or diving into a good story, I always try to make it fun & engaging for them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is keeping a healthy, balanced schedule that helps kids feel happy, secure, and excited about their day. I’ve found that having a good rhythm — time to play, learn, eat, and rest — really makes a difference. Kids do best when there’s structure, but also room for fun and flexibility. I love creating days that feel calm & predictable, but still full of creativity and little adventures that keep things interesting!

Dessa R. - Seeking Work in Boulder

Babysitter Available in Boulder, CO: Dessa R.

Howdy! I’m Dessa and have been caring for children as long as I can remember. My family welcomed twin baby girls when I was 8 and ever since then, I’ve loved having children in my life. I was a single mother to 3 children for several years before finding my soulmate and now have the opportunity to walk away from my career to be a stay at home mom! My children are older now and are in school and have multiple extracurricular activities after school and I’m looking for families that need a little extra TLC for their little one(s). A part time nanny position or occasional babysitting would be ideal. A full time nanny position is always possible if it’s the right fit for everyone.

Thanks for looking <3
