Lifelong Learner
Fitness, Water Aerobics & Yoga Teacher
Melody is a certified Yoga Instructor, having studied at the Saltspring Centre of Yoga. She loves teaching yoga & playing with children of all ages. She has also completed her fitness teacher training & regularly teaches water aerobics and yoga at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge.

Birth of an Idea
Travelling Parents
Melody became a first-time mom in 2014 when her little boy was born. Then in 2017, Melody & Peter became proud parents again…this time bringing their baby girl into this world.
On a holiday in Costa Rica, Melody & Peter wanted to go ziplining but were too anxious to simply hire a local babysitter. They realized Jasper visitors might have the same kind of apprehension and saw My Jasper Nanny as a much-needed service.

My name is Kirk Taylor, and I’m one of My Jasper Nanny’s newest dog walkers.
I’m originally from New Brunswick but have lived in over 10 cities in 5 provinces. I was living and working in Southampton, Bermuda until Covid began. I’m a very active guy, and dog walking is a great way for me to stay active, be outside and enjoy living in Jasper. I’m excited to meet your four-legged family member so I can get my dog fix while you explore Jasper!😊

Hello, my name is Molly and I am a 20 year old from Australia! I am currently taking a break front my degree in clinical exercise physiology to work and live in Canada!! Back at home I am a dance teacher to kids with special needs, which I absolutely loved. I have also babysat numerous families throughout the years. I have two doggies at home which I love and miss very much. My passions include dancing (lots of dance parties will be had with the kiddos), rollerskating, and anything to do with nature.

Hi, I'm Daralynn. I am a long time Jasper resident and I've recently retired from a railway career. I love the mountain lifestyle and am honoured to call our beautiful national park home. I've been a member of The Borzoi Club of Canada for 20 years. This is my favorite breed but all dogs are close to my heart. I love walking and dog sitting and have recently joined My Jasper Nanny in the winter of 2022. I have a large family of nieces and nephews and enjoy spending time with children. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

My name is Sue and I am a mother of 2 wonderful grown children. I have a degree in early childhood education and have worked in daycares for over 20 yrs. When I'm not working, I enjoy the outdoors, beaches and lakes.
As a dog sitter, I like the dogs to feel part of my family. I have 2 dogs and a dog friendly cat.

Hey! My name is Mason, I moved from Manitoba to live in Jasper in the summer of 2022. I currently work at Marmot Basin in the retail shop, and at the Jasper Sky Tram in the summers. In my spare time I enjoy being outside hiking, bike riding or snowboarding. I’ve had many pets over the years and would love to play with and look after your dog! I’ve had experience raising puppies and will ensure your pet is properly cared for while you enjoy Jasper! If your pet requires lots of play I'll see to it that they’re properly played with so that they’ll be sleeping well!
I miss my golden retriever Bandit back home, so I’m very excited to meet you and your puppy dog!

Hello, my name is Thea. I’m one of My Jasper Nanny's younger nannies, but I have a lot of childcare experience. I graduated with honours in 2018. I’ve babysat infants as young as 6 months old and really enjoy children of all ages. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and have lived in Jasper my whole life. I love looking after kids and being active. I’m super outgoing and energetic with kids. I became a my Jasper nanny in the spring of 2018.

Hello! My name is Larissa and I’ve been living in Jasper for two years.
I’m originally from Ontario and graduated three years ago with a degree in Psychology, Neuroscience, & Behaviour. I currently work in retail fashion and spend my downtime hiking (ideally with a pup!), doing yoga, reading books from the library, and weaving traditional mandalas.
My childcare experience began as a performance-based clown on a family farm when I was a teenager. I then volunteered for many years in a Children’s Hospital and babysat so extensively that I became good friends with a handful of families. Since then, my sisters have had children and I’ve spent countless years loving them.
As for animals, absolutely everything is better with a furry friend!

Hi, I'm Carla and I'm here to take care of your lovely child or your sweet dog.
Each nature walk, game, craft or other activity I do is tailored specifically to the needs and interests of YOUR child. If you'd like to add in play time for your child with a sweet and gentle dog, just let me know, as I have a dog who loves all people from toddlers on up.
Each walk (or other dog activity) I do is tailored specifically to the needs of YOUR dog. If you're also looking for social time for your pup, just let me know, and I can bring my dog along too.
I want you to be able to enjoy yourself with the comfort of knowing that everything's taken care of, and that we'll be having fun too!

Hey! My name is Danielle and I’m originally from Manitoba. I moved to Jasper at the beginning of summer 2022 and I’m loving it! I can’t wait to see this beautiful place during the winter season!
In my spare time I love to be outside hiking, camping, going on the water. I also love to cook/bake, play guitar and piano! I am also bilingual, I speak French and English.
I decided to join my Jasper Nanny because since moving out here I’ve missed being with children. I love their energy, youthfulness and joy! Back home I have 3 young foster kids that I consider as my siblings since they’ve been in my life for 8 years.
Throughout the years I’ve babysat for families in my hometown. I love taking the kids on walks and seeing how many parks we can find. I also love playing any game their heart desires, if that’s tag, imaginary games or swimming.
I’m really looking forward to meeting you and your family!

Hello, My name is Abbie
I am originally from England and came to Jasper to live and work in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. I love being outdoors and exploring all the national park has to offer. I have worked as a camp counsellor in America for 9 weeks, teaching and caring for children from ages 4-16. I have also worked at a summer camp in the UK for 6 weeks as an instructor for children between the ages of 4-7.
I have a strong background in sport. I have a degree in exercise and sport science with a focus on child motor development. My main hobbies in my free time are hiking, yoga and scrap booking.
I adore working with children, probably because I am still a big kid myself. I admire the endless energy children have and how they can inspire creativity and resilience.

It was worth every penny!
We hired Melody for my wedding at Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge. She watched my 7 month old baby from 10:00AM - 12:30AM. It was worth every penny! She was AMAZING with our baby. I highly recommend her.

The kids had such an incredible night!
Melody watched our kiddos this past weekend while we attended our close friends beautiful wedding at Pyramid Lake Resort. She came right to our hotel room with a giant bag of toys and the kids were instantly excited for a night with their first ever "babysitter"! The kids had such an incredible night of pizza, kayaking, hot tubbing and reading books! I was so happy when we arrived at the resort and the front office staff knew exactly who she was and assured me the kids were going to have a blast. She made us feel at ease with her awesome text updates and we spent the entire night bragging about how easy and helpful her service was for parents on a mountain getaway to Jasper! We will definitely be calling Melody again when it comes time to hit the slopes in the winter 🥰

Our dog Porter had a great time with Caleb
Our dog Porter had a great time with Caleb at Jasper Nanny. Melody was accommodating with us as we booked with less than 24hrs notice (it was early June in the shoulder season). We were able to explore the Hot springs while Porter got to play at Jaspers large dog park and hangout within someone’s home. She came back very tired. Jasper nanny has many options for dog sitting including at your hotel or campsite!

Absolutely amazing with our 8-month-old
Melody was absolutely amazing with our 8.5 month old daughter while we were out on a date night. She checked in beforehand and made sure she knew our daughter’s routines, preferences, and general timing for things like feeding, naps, and bed time. Furthermore, Melody took the time while we were out to send us texts letting us know how our daughter was doing and to let us know when she was down for the night. I would highly recommend Melody and the My Jasper Nanny service to any parent, especially those with infants, who are visiting Jasper but perhaps want a date night too.
