My name is Melissa and I absolutely love kids! I am from Randolph, NJ. I am an occupational therapist in a public district working with students with autism and other disabilities. I am passionate about working with all children, especially those with special needs. I love doing arts and crafts, reading and running around with kids, but I am also here to help around the house with some light housekeeping, laundry, etc... As much as I love working with children, I also enjoy engaging with parents and families! My schedule allows flexibility for school breaks, days off, date nights and weekend help. I look forward to getting to know you and your family!
