My name is Melanie. I have been working with children in various different settings for over 10 years! Some of my previous experience includes being an assistant preschool teacher for a Head Start program, working in a K-5 significant support needs classroom, lead toddler teacher in a ski resort employee daycare, as well as babysitting and nannying. I have a BA in psychology as well as a BA in family/child studies with a minor in speech-language pathology. In my free time I love to cook, read, and do anything outdoors. I try to incorporate that as much as I can in to my work. I love doing art projects, science experiments, reading, and local field trips. I encourage playing and exploring outside as much as possible, even if that means getting dirty! I have experience caring for sick children, helping with light household chores, caring for pets, and running errands!

Melanie is just the best...We are devastated she is moving away, but she taught our 2 yr old son so much, always reliable and willingly to do whatever, and became a big part of our family. We envy whomever she cares for next!! We will miss her!
