About Megan

As a caregiver I would seek to give your friend or loved one the best care in my ability, help them out with the daily tasks needed, and provide loving companionship to bring as much joy to their day as I can. I am a compassionate, empathetic, hardworking mom of 5 kids, two of which are grown and gone. This past year I helped care for my dad, who had a stroke, and I would consider it an honor to help care for your friend or loved one. The thing I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the ability we possess to make a difference in someone's life and bring joy to those who are aging. I have a BA in Social Work and have worked in a home for mentally challenged adults which has helped to build my caregiving skills.

Hello, my name is Marlena and I have been a caregiver since 2015. I am always helping others so that is a reason to my liking to work as a caregiver. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the ability to help others and spread joy. The personal achievement that I am proud of is that I recently was part of a commitee for the American Cancer Society Breast Cancer walk. All of the meetings and walk throughs, the event turned out to be wonderfully fun.
