A little bit about me

My name is Melissa Lufkin, and I am 39 years old, single with no kids. I grew up in West Hartford, Connecticut. I have a bachelor's degree in Clinical Psychology from Keene State College in New Hampshire. I fell into afterschool programming at the elementary & middle school level, and then went on to work as a special education teaching assistant/ behavioral therapist in private schools and the public school districts.
The joy of shaping young minds, nurturing their self-esteem, and encouraging their growth is truly rewarding. The unpredictability that comes with working with school-age children keeps me energized and engaged. I have over 10 years of professional experience supervising, implementing and developing various programs for Pre-K through 8th grade in various roles. I am a punctual, reliable, flexible and an adaptable babysitter. I’d love to help out with running errands, completing light housekeeping tasks to make your lives a little easier.
