Kind, creative and fun! Very reliable and responsible. I'm an educator with over 20 years teaching experience in all subject areas. I have experience teaching special education and students with multiple disabilities (current teaching position). I am also available to babysit for a date night or on weekends. I am a mom to two teenage boys and am looking for part-time employment

Melissa has been a Godsend! My daughter has neurological challenges with ADHD, in a school that does not seem to understand those challenges, and was more than 2 full grade levels behind in math due to the pandemic school closures. In SIX MONTHS, Melissa turned all of that around. Her patience, kindness, creativity, and genuine care about my child's learning showed through, and I have never before seen my child so confident and successful in this subject area. Is my daughter at grade level? No, not yet. However, Melissa moved her up 1.25 grade levels in less than 6 months and we're really excited to see her keep that trend going during the next school year. (I'm actually crying while I'm writing this, because I am so grateful for finding Melissa and how much she has helped turn my daughter's life around). Thank you Melissa!
