About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a credentialed elementary educator and mother of four seeking to support children and families. For the past 10 years I have worked as a lead K-1 and literacy intervention teacher with experience as both a private home tutor and seasonal nanny. My child centered approach encourages connection, creativity and problem solving. I know to balance structure and variety when I plan engaging learning opportunities for children that build upon their interests and curiosities. I can drive, cook, shop, clean and organize based on family needs. I am hardworking, kind and patient. Look forward to learning more about how I can support your family!
