About Melanie

Hi, I'm Melanie! I became a caregiver because I love helping those in need. I live with my grandmother who has Alzheimer's and Dementia and am currently taking care of her. I love being a caregiver because I believe in patience, empathy, and compassion; I feel honored being a part of someone's life in such an important way. I am starting school part time in the Fall of 2017, and plan on Nursing school in the future. I am flexible, reliable, confident, and excited!
