About Me

Hi, I’m Melissa – a DBS-checked mum of four with lots of hands-on experience looking after children of all ages. I’m reliable, flexible and understand that sometimes parents just need an evening off or cover at unusual hours.

I offer more than just supervision – I’m creative, patient and like to make sure kids feel proud of whatever they’re doing, whether that’s building in Minecraft, finishing a school project, or making something crafty.

In my own time, I’m also a streamer, so I know the online world well and can make gaming safe, fun and positive for children.

My Experience

- Over 16 years’ childcare experience as a mum.

- Babysitting for friends and neighbours, including newborns, toddlers and older children.

- Experience supporting children with ADHD, autism and additional needs.

- Ran an after-school art club at my children’s school.

- Helped children with creative homework, projects and presentations.

- Supervised online gaming sessions (Roblox, Minecraft, PS4 etc) to ensure kids stay safe and engaged.

- Flexible and reliable for last-minute babysitting – something parents have told me they really value.
