Meet Melanie

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am a returning student from Hope College. I will be continuing and finishing my degree in sociology and health education. My mother is a single mom so I used to care for my 2 younger sisters. One is 14 years old now and the other is 9 years old. I am the oldest. I also used to babysit a few years for a family friend since her kids have been born. She moved to Florida last year. The kids are now 10 years old and 4 years old. I used to work with a program with Hope college called CASA. In this program we take on a child from the public schools in holland and tutor them. We help them with their homework, and when that is over we have leisure time to play games or do what ever activity they want to do.
