Melanie Kruger is 32 years old and she has over 14 years’ experience working with children from 1 – 18 years, in a wide range of settings including nurseries, primary schools, home care as a Nanny and babysitter, tutor/teacher and also summer and winter camps. Melanie also holds a BAFA certificate (a French Certificate for the supervision of young people, within community centers and holiday and leisure centres) and is fluent in French, English and Spanish.
She has worked and travelled all over the world! Including France, Italy, Spain and has spent the last few years living and working in Panama, where her partner is from.
She returned to France this summer and has been working in Morzine as a holiday nanny for a well known nanny company there and also as a cleaner. After getting a taste of holiday nannying in the mountains this summer, she is even more excited for her winter in Meribel.
Melanie likes to take the time to get to know the children she is caring for, taking them out on adventures outdoors as well as crafting. She describes herself as patient, flexible, fun and friendly.
She loves travel, nature, animals and sharing her passions with the children.
We are very excited to have another amazing, experienced nanny on the team!
Melanie is available throughout the season for full time bookings in the Meribel Valley

Melanie worked for us at the youth service of the city of Guebwiller, offering our mobile arts project, offering artistic activities to young children in the local neighbourhoods 6 – 18 years old. She carried out her with efficiency, flexibility and professionalism. She was especially appreciated by other members of her team for her investment, management and her ability to adapt.

Melanie was responsible for children 3 – 12 years in our hotel in the Dolomites, Italy. Her professionalism allowed the children to enjoy their holiday and both the children and adults were pleased. She was dynamic, happy and appreciated by all of our guests. Her motivation and energy allowed her to build trust with both the children and adults. She is at ease with all age groups and we have complete confidence in her.
