ABOUT ME

Melanie Hajjar

Owner/Director/Lifeguard/Group Leader

I have a BA degree from UMass Amherst in early childhood education with a focus on teaching through art and science.  I've been living on Nantucket with my husband since June of 2002. I've created several programs for children including Cosmic Creations, an art/science after-school class, and educational birthday parties. In the summer of 2004, I launched Seafari Girls and have been running the program every summer since then. Most recently, my husband and I built our own school called  Exploration Station. It hosts a preschool program during the school year and Seafari Girls in the summer. I love spending time with kids because they are the truest form of people with endless love, creativity, and open minds.
