About Melissa

*Patience, and compassion are two very important qualities of a great caregiver. *A dear friend of mine needed help with her uncle, they found it difficult to trust outsiders, so I volunteered to help this family. *Caring for people is part of my nature, I am a Mother. I find it very gratifying to provide comfort for the elderly. *I attended DeVry University and was able to be on the Dean's list. (DeVry is a top accredited school). I am registered & licensed through the state of California & DPSS / Live Scan. My CPR & First-Aid Certifications are current.

I am an awesome caregiver because I simply love people! I love animals too. I will treat you and your family, and even your pets as if they are my own! I am CPR certified and I have several years of experience taking care of people with different challenges/ disabilities (including my own mom who has Alzheimer's). I am a very loving, caring, and thoughtful individual with lots of patience. I love helping people and taking care of them. I am committed to doing my best, and ensuring each, and every individual is respected, and completely taken care of. I feel that there is nothing more rewarding, then doing something you love. Meet me, and you'll see that my heart is really in it! Please don't hesitate to give me a chance. I know you won't be disappointed. Thanks for your time, and good luck in your search! Thank you, Robin
