I've worked as a nurse assistant over 16 yrs caring for disabled, elderly, ill, and mentally challenged clients. I have worked in nursing home, hospital, home care, senior facility, respite care, private duty, direct care service, and hospice care, and trained in massage. I like to challenge myself as a caregiver with promoting new work skills. My time is giving care to others, that cannot do for themselves. My achievement is to see my three children succeed in the life that values them. For myself, to be recognized for my work performance, that's giving to each individual that has been cared for, show appreciation. I had several resident tell me that I'm wonderful, and I had a tearful moment. It's a blessing to hear positive thinking from a client. I'm a certified assistant living manager, private caregiver, and studied massage technique . Thank You.

Hello, my name is Marilyn. I am a compassionate caregiver with over 10+ years of experience of providing in-home care for seniors and those with disabilities.

I have experience with clients who has demonstrated needing/care with dementia. I take pride in providing centered care while staying true to my caring, funny, down to earth personality. My passion for helping others started when my father became terminally ill with cancer. I was his full-time caregiver and realized I had a gift caring for others. I really love what I do! I get to make a difference in some amazing people life. One of my biggest professional achievements was receiving the "Director's Award" for outstanding service to clients at my last employer.
