As a bilingual (English/Spanish) professional in the field of human and social sciences, I have been working around human needs in their social life in our multicultural world; principally on the education of the youngest children and youths placed in residential programs. The experiences I’ve had as an educator, along with my training in Anthropology, have been very helpful to introducing youngsters and their families in the human process of mental, physical and spiritual growth.

I did not end up hiring Melissa but I found her to be one of my most professional applicants. She was on time, professional and came with her resume and list of references to her interview. I gave her 3 stars because I cannot comment on her childcare.
