Meet Melanie

  • Speaks Sign Language
  • Comfortable with pets

My name is Melanie I have my Associates degree in American Sign Language, and my Bachelors in English with 20+ credits in education or based around education. I have worked in a Head Start School for the last two summers and have worked with children since I was thirteen, in a variety of different settings, age groups and backgrounds. I enjoy working with infants to around third grade. I am good at making crafts and lesson plans that are both educational and fun. I enjoy helping children with their homework and teaching them new things. It is important to me to have children play outside even if it is playing outside, in the park or going on a nature walk. I love to cook and enjoy to teach children how to teach them to cook and eat healthy.
