Dementia Caregivers in Defuniak Springs - 30 caregivers found

My name is Melanie, and I am, above all, a wife, mom, daughter to my 91-year-old Momma who lives with us, Gramma, sister, Aunt, etc. Family is important to me; a healthy and happy family. I have always been the nurturer or caregiver in the family, among my peers, in my jobs, with my co-workers and even with strangers that need assistance. My grandparents lived with us when I was little and I started babysitting at 10. Throughout my life I have worked with severely disabled children and adults, developing children's imagination and educating them, created programs for all ages, assisted seniors who needed care in the home and personally lost loved ones to Cancer. I am also familiar with the end of life and/or hospice process. I feel contentment in knowing assistance, time, care and respect I can give to another human makes a positive impact in their life and can give family members a bit of peace knowing their loved one is safe. I try my best to not be a proud person, but I must say one of the best achievements in my life is raising three children to be productive, responsible, respectful and loving adults. My husband, myself and Momma just moved to the Panhandle and I am looking forward to experiencing all the things this area has to offer.
