My name is Molly and I am a licensed math and science teacher with seven years of classroom teaching experience. I worked as a middle school teacher before accepting my current position as a science instructor at the Junior Museum and Zoo, where which I bring science lessons to local elementary schools. I graduated from Bowdoin College and later received my Master's in Secondary Education from Simmons. I have taught in both Guatemala and Spain and am certified in TESOL, TEFL and SEI in addition to other certifications (National Geographic Educator, Certified Educator, others). I have been trained on language-based learning disabilities, SEL, trauma-informed practices, and more. In my free time I love to read, walk with my dog, hike, bike, play board games, and explore new places. also available for child care

Molly really helped us out when we needed a last-minute babysitter after not realizing our daycare was on holiday. She was really sweet and thoughtful with our daughter, had an extremely positive and friendly attitude, and my daughter had a great time while being well-cared for. Molly was dependable, on time, and communicative. My family would definitely hire her again if we had the chance!
