Melissa Dorsette writes, "I have been the Sunday Nursery Attendant at Saint Andrew's since April, ‘09. I really enjoy my position and spending time with the children and their families. I have met some of the Saint Andrew's staff, who are both warm and welcoming.
I have resided in Highland Park for almost 15 years and have been married for over 18 years. I also work full-time at A Second Chance, Inc. (a Kinship Care agency) and volunteer at both the Pittsburgh Zoo and West Penn Hospital. In those few moments of free time (see above), I enjoy spending them with my Husband, dogs, and the occasional flea market/yard sale, of course!" |
