About Melissa

NOT AVAILABLE 3/14-3/31/24 I have two teenagers myself so I would LOVE to hang out with babies and younger children again. I started working with children when I was around 11 years old! I was a babysitter, on-call nanny, and then went into education as a teacher for the past 20 years teaching History, English, Art, Speech and Debate. I left the education system because I kept fighting for students and teachers, but the system wasn't listening or evolving. What I miss most is working with others so that's why I'm here! My skills include listening, collaborating, helping others to think creatively, and practicing restorative practices. I'm looking for a job that allows me an opportunity to help others while having flexibility in my schedule. One thing you should know about me is I'm dependable and able to manage multiple tasks at any given moment. After raising my own two daughters and working with 173 teenagers every day, I am pretty sure I can handle anything!
