I am a preschool teacher working on my Master's degree in Curriculum & Instruction Effective Practitioner. I currently teach in an inclusive classroom in KCKPS with a variety of children. I will be completing my 11th year this May! In addition to English, I speak some Spanish. While I am not against screen time, I do not encourage it- especially for children under age 5. Instead I enjoy creating art, doing science, baking, or playing inside or outside. I am happy to assist your child with any skills they are working on; from potty training to riding a bike to math homework! I am certified to work with general and special education students, and am comfortable working with most children- including those with significant behaviors. I have a teenage daughter who requires a special diet, so I am sensitive to any dietary needs your child/children may have and am cautious of cross-contamination. Additionally, I am certified in first aid and CPR. I'm excited to work with you!

Our family absolutely LOVES Melissa. Our two girls would beg us to go on dates so she could come visit. Reliable, excellent communication and such wonderful care. We never worried when we were out and Melissa was with our girls. Cannot recommend her enough!
