About Melissa

Experience: 5 yrs

Hello, My name is Melissa C. I have been working with special needs children as a paraprofessional for over five years. I have also worked as a Behavior Technician and Respite Worker. One of the reasons I am drawn to this field is my desire to help others, particularly children. I am passionate about assisting people of all ages and abilities, and I genuinely find fulfillment in my work.

I don't leave reviews but in short words, Melissa was great with my 4 yr old daughter. very respectful, kind, dependable, etc. my daughter felt safe and I didn't have to worry while I was working if my baby was okay. but anyway would definitely rehire Melissa 100%.
