Hello! My name is Tessa Edwards and I am currently a graduate student studying speech-language pathology at Ithaca College. I live in Marshfield and am looking for a part time position in the caregiving field. Through my graduate program, I have worked with several clients in a clinical setting including those recovering from stroke as well as suffering degenerative diseases. As a student in speech-language pathology, I am passionate about effective communication and its positive impact on the dignity and independence of older adults. I am a kind, patient, responsible individual looking to supplement my income as I finish graduate school. I have past work experience as a full time nanny, and have also worked in an assisted living facility. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions!
