Hello there! My name is Melissa. I have worked in the field of education for nearly 10 years. After exploring some other potential career options, I have found myself gravitating back to where my heart lies, and that involves caring for children. I have a background in both Business Marketing and Management, as well as Early Childhood and Special Education. I welcome the opportunity to provide assistance to your family, as well as guidance through exploration and creativity to your child or children.
