About Me

My name is Melanie, I want to be that extra pair of hands for you, offering a safe-base when you are not around.

I am a sensitive, patient, organised, confident person - and I am also a parent, so I get it!

I love being outdoors, my moto is "muddy children are happy children".

I am happy to follow routines and your way of doing things, you are the expert here.

My Experience

I have a history in healthcare, working with children and adults with disabilities and additional needs. I also have experience working in community groups, offering care, summer camps and holiday clubs to 2-11 year olds. I was a volunteer community youth worker, working with young people aged 11-20, leading youth groups and discussion groups. I have experience in running toddler groups and co-leading baby singing classes.

Being a creative person, I see the value of music, movement and arts in childhood development.

I was the coordinator for Adoption UK - East Lothian Community Group which is a group geared around parenting support, once per month I organise a weekend activity for the children to come along to.

I have a son who is home educated so I am available evenings and weekends.

I am attachment aware, with a full disclosure and a CPD Diploma in Playwork.

My Qualifications

My experience is very hands on, however I do have qualifications in Playwork, Healthcare, Health & Nutrition, Counselling, Coaching, Mentoring and CBT.

My Availability

I am looking for part time hours to fit around my own family life, but I am flexible with when these hours are worked.
