About Alphabet Kids

 

 Hello, my name is Melissa.

I have worked with children, families, and teachers for over 25 years.

Many of these years have been spent in schools where I have held various roles. Ensuring opportunities for every child’s personal growth and success has always been at the heart of what I do.

As a mother to five, I often work with children from my home studio in Frankston South now. It just makes the juggle a little more manageable!

From the very young, fostering a child’s confidence to express their ideas and imagination, and to realise their artistic intention, is of critical importance.

My sessions are aimed at encouraging children to explore art, develop their creativity and self-expression, while supporting their wellbeing and fostering their self-esteem.
