Hello! My name is Melanie and I love working with kids of all ages as well as adults with special needs. I graduated with a psychology degree in 2021 and recently graduated with my doctorate in occupational therapy! I have worked at various day and overnight camps, including those specialized for individuals with disabilities. I have experience with a variety of ages from infants up to neurodivergent adults. I completed an internship as a behavior technician at Wisconsin early autism project and have provided respite care for individuals with a variety of different needs. I've worked with a church nursery that mainly served children from 6 months to 3 years old and have had many babysitting jobs over the past few years. I recently passed my boards and am now a certified occupational therapist :) I would love to do date nights or part-time care while I transition into my future career!
