A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Melissa Jane! I was born and raised in Music City USA, Nashville, TN, and have been loving living in Chicago for three years now. I am a theatre director and multidisciplinary artist. My love for caring for children began in high school, when I worked as a youth theatre mentor. I have many years of experience in both childcare and education, and have worked with kids from ages 3 all the way to 18. I am CPR/first aid certified for infants, children, and adults. I love crafts, dance parties, reading, playing outside, and going for "explores"! I'm looking forward to finding a family I can work with long-term. I can't wait to meet you!

Through this program, I helped with activities, lesson plans, and fine motor skill development.
