Hi, my name is Melissa. I am a pediatric occupational therapist. I have worked as a Registered Behavior Technician for two years in the home and school setting with kids ages 2-10 years old. Throughout my masters program I babysat for a company that provides babysitters for families with special needs. I have the patience, dedication, and motivation to work with kids on the spectrum. I love teaching kids new things as well as learning new things from the amazing kids I get to work with. I have been a pediatric occupational therapist for two years and work in the school setting.
