About Michelle
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a certified teacher with 12 years experience teaching kindergarten, 1st, and 3rd grade. I would love to take care of your child(ren) after school, or on the weekends My school starts at 8:45, so I may even be able to drop off your kids at school in the morning. I'm a good cook and I make coking fun, so I could involve your child(ren) in meal preparation. I could certainly take some time each day for instruction to either catch your child up, if need be, or push them to the next level. I make learning fun. But kids like to play, too, so I like to do crafts and play games -- making homemade greeting cards, and playing Yahtzee and Trouble among my specialties! I'm a single mom with a daughter at Michigan State. I love pets and I love kids and I'd love to hear from you

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Michelle! As a single mom that works twelve-hour shifts, she has been an absolute blessing. Because Michelle is an elementary school teacher, she brings an incredible level of patience, creativity, and structure that my five-year-old truly thrives on. Every time she comes over, I know my child is not only in safe hands but is also learning, laughing, and genuinely having a great time. She is dependable, punctual, and completely reliable — I never have to worry about last-minute cancellations or no-shows. She communicates clearly, follows through on commitments, and always goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. My child adores her, and it’s easy to see why. She engages with her on her level while gently encouraging growth and good behavior. Whether it’s reading stories, doing crafts, or just imaginative play, she always keeps things fun and educational. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family in need of exceptional childcare. She’s a rare find!

Other Qualifications & Credentials
Teaching is a second career. My first career was as a dietitian. I can cook healthy
but yummy meals and teach your child(ren) about nutrition
and how to cook! We might even grow some vegetables if you want.
