A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Melanie! I’m a caring and reliable nanny with years of experience supporting families by creating safe, fun, and nurturing environments for children to grow and thrive. I’m bilingual (English and Spanish), which I love incorporating into play and learning, and I’m known for being patient, adaptable, and organized.

I enjoy planning engaging activities that keep kids entertained and curious;whether that’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, or helping with schoolwork. Families describe me as dependable, proactive, and someone they can trust to handle everything from daily routines to unexpected situations with ease.

Beyond childcare, I’m happy to assist with light household tasks, scheduling, or errands to help keep family life running smoothly. Most importantly, I truly value building meaningful relationships with the children I care for and supporting parents in feeling confident their little ones are in good hands.

Victoria M. - Seeking Work in New York

Babysitter Available in New York, NY: Victoria M.

I love being a sitter because caring for others has always come naturally to me. I grew up helping care for my older sister, who has special needs and required 24/7 support — helping with her dressing, feeding, and bathing taught me patience and how to anticipate someone's needs before they ask.

Over the past three years, I've dog sat and potty trained a puppy, and I nannied for a two-year-old for a summer, so I'm comfortable with toddler energy and the responsibility of training a young pup. That, plus growing up helping raise my sister, taught me to stay calm, patient, and reliable no matter what a day brings.

I'm CPR and First Aid certified, regularly cook with my nieces so I'm safe and comfortable in the kitchen with kids, and speak some Spanish. Whether it's a child, a puppy, or a family member who needs care, I show up dependable, warm, and ready to help.
