About Melissa

I chose in-home caregiving many years ago I started as a candy striper in a convalescent home when I was 16 from then on I knew what my calling was was to help take care of and love others. My most favorite thing as a caregiver is getting to know a new friend. Honestly I couldn't imagine doing anything else..

I started by taking Family leave from my job as a Bookkeeper, to care for my Father. I thought at that point 5 years ago, hey I would like to do this for a living. Two years later my Father passed away and I lost my job and began caring for my Mother. At that point I decided to go to school and become certified. Received my CNA in 2013. Have been working since then and love what I'm doing. I am caring, dependable, fun, positive and energetic. I am a team player and can also take the lead. I love to cook, bake and juice. Interested in healthy living. Love walking, music, traveling and especially my family!
