About Melisa

I graduated high school in 2008 and received my Certified Nursing assistance license. I became a care giver because I have a passion for helping others and seeing them smile. I am a very outgoing person who is always smiling. I have a 14 month old daughter who is my world, so you can say i have lots of patients. I treat all of my clients as if they were family. I give them lots of respect and help them in any way that they may need. I do not treat them as if they were babies because most of them have lived a much longer life than I have. In my six years of experience I have worked with stroke patients, Alzheimer, dementia, g-tubes, mental disorders, fall risk patients, and more.

    I am a very caring and loving person, I want to make the people that I take care of feel like they are apart of my family:) I like being a caregiver because it brings me so much joy and peace to know that I'm making a difference in someone's life and vice versa. I've been a caregiver for 10+ years, some experience I've had from taken care of my own family members which is honestly how I found myself here today
