Trusted Care for Kids & Pets | Experienced, Compassionate, and Ready to Help!
Hi! I’m 27 years old and have spent my entire life surrounded by both animals and children—two things I truly love caring for. I’ve owned and cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including hamsters, birds, cats, dogs, and even turtles. I also have experience with reptiles and farm animals, so I’m comfortable handling all kinds of personalities, routines, and care needs.
Being the oldest of six siblings, I naturally grew up helping care for children and taking on a nurturing, responsible role from a young age. That experience shaped who I am today—someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys creating a safe, positive environment for others.
At my core, I just want to be a source of good in the world. I believe you never truly know what someone else may be going through or what kind of support they might need, and I take pride in being someone others can trust and rely on—whether that’s for their children, their pets, or their peace of mind.
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time, Full-time employment.
I can travel to surrounding suburbs/towns of Paintsville for work.

I am a highly experienced and dependable caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and animal care. Since 2018, I have worked in caregiving roles, including in assisted living facilities, where I developed hands-on experience supporting individuals with a wide range of needs. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), having earned my certification in 2018 through a technical school program during my senior year of high school. In 2019, I became a registered Direct Support Professional (DSP), and I currently serve as a caretaker and house manager for individuals with intellectual and physical disabilities. This role has strengthened my skills in responsibility, patience, safety awareness, and compassionate care.
I am fully trained in CPR, general first aid, and infant first aid, and I also have asthma care training. I always carry a well-stocked first aid kit to ensure preparedness in any situation. I am a non-smoker and non-vaper, COVID vaccinated, and a permanent resident.
In addition, I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and emergency vehicle access, allowing me to respond quickly and handle transportation needs safely. My experience, certifications, and commitment to safety make me well-qualified to care for both children and animals with attentiveness and professionalism.
Hi! I’m Melina, a responsible, creative, and enthusiastic babysitter who genuinely loves working with kids. I’m currently studying Child Development and have experience working with children in both educational and childcare settings. I’ve also recently started an internship at Sherwood Elementary School, where I get to gain even more hands-on experience with kids!
I love coming up with fun activities, helping with homework, reading stories, playing games, and making sure kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also a theatre kid, so I’m always ready to bring a little creativity and imagination into the day!
I’m hoping to become an elementary school teacher in the future, so working with children isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and care about. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while making sure their kids have a fun, safe, and positive time while they’re away!
Reliable and Caring Babysitter with Experience in All Ages and Special Needs
I’m someone who truly enjoys caring for kids of all ages, from infants to preteens, including those with special needs. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space where children feel comfortable and happy. I like to go the extra mile by helping with meals, homework, and household chores, making sure everything runs smoothly. Outside of babysitting, I love hiking, biking, going for walks, and doing DIY projects, which helps me bring creative and active ideas to the kids I care for. Overall, I’m dedicated to making every child’s experience positive and supportive.
