About Melissa

I'm originally from New Jersey. I have been in Florida for a little over 12 years now. My husband and I absolutely love Florida and found the Oviedo area to be a perfect place to raise our daughter. I graduated in August 2019 with my bachelors in Public Administration. I am still trying to figure out how I want to apply that bachelor's into a career that works for me. In the mean time, I enjoy working with seniors and assisting them and their families anyway I can.

I love being a caregiver. I've always been in the caregiving business since I was 18. Singing, laughing, hugging, loving, and making people smile is what I do best. I'm very patient, kind and make my residents feel like they are the only ones I'm taking care of. Understanding and being able to relate with seniors who have Alzheimer's is a big task and I love what I do. Let me help take care of your loved one today!
