About Melissa

I'm such a caring women, it just comes naturally, ever since I was little I've always cared about others always tried to help other kids or adults. I was personal caregiver in Easthampton and I am graduated medical assistant, I've worked with newborns to seniors for 8 yes, I'm a mother of 3 and I've taken care of my grandmother not to mention I did volunteer work at the palmer Alzheimer's home!! It in my blood I absolutely love caring for others. I'm professional and I put others needs before mine! My grandfather passing away 2 yrs ago was very hard for me and the way some of the caregivers treated him made me so upset I don't think some people should be caring for others..I believe its not just a job paying you ..you have to enjoy your job! Now my grandmother is I'll and in a nursing home some of the things I see and hear I just don't like..so I feel even if its just me one person..at least I know and believe I would make a difference!

    Hello my name is Shaequa pronounced shaniqua. I believe I would be a great candidate to work with your loved ones. Simply because I love assisting people who cant completely do for themselves and being the person who they can depend on to make them feel as if they still belong also by promoting independence. I've worked in this field pretty much all my life having elderly family members and working in the field. I have been trained in many areas I have my cpr and first aid I have worked on the dementia long term and rehab units I have also done private duties in home

    My personality traits are patients, kindness, compassion, empathy and love. I'm interested in caregiving because I receive joy from helping others. I enjoy showing compassion to others because it reminds them they are cared for, cared about, feel loved and appreciated. Everyone deserves to feel loved. I am most proud of raising kind, loving and thoughtful children.
