    05-01-2012 Melissa L. has been looking after our Son, who has Autism, for over a year now. Melissa is a very hard working individual who has exceptional patience when it comes to children with Autism. Our son Noah took to Melissa very quickly and we are very happy and extremely lucky to have found Melissa. Melissa is always on time and extremely professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone who has a Special Needs Child. Furthermore, Melissa came highly recommended to me from some of my friends that we have in common. In closing, she is a blessing to have around; very few people in the world have the positive attitude that she has. Give her a try, you won't be disappointed. Sincerely, Rodney S.
