About Melissa

Experience: 5 yrs

I truly enjoy coaching, teaching, reading, crafting with kids. I started child care when I was 12, became a part-time Nanny during HS/college. Flash forward to having my own kids: When the kids were toddlers, we spend lots of time at the playground, visiting museums, sports and crafts. When my kids were preschool age, I started teaching kids yoga, indoor 3-year-old baseball, and a weekly healthy eating/yoga class at an afterschool program. When my kids started elementary school, I worked as a preschool paraprofessional for a year. In addition, I was asked by several organizations to coach basketball and soccer. Now that my kids are older, I'm still active with my kids, crafting with my daughter and cooking with my son. I still get the pleasure of participating with kids, I have two young kids. The joke with the girls is, "Auntie's house is never boring" and WWMD aka What Would Melissa Do. I hope you will consider allowing me to help care for your kids.
