About melissa

About 7 years ago my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. I had the opportunity to spend some time with him before his passing and assisted with feedings, medication reminder, bathing, incontinence care, hygiene, dressing, cooking, laundry, exercise, errands, light housekeeping, organized medication. I've had the opportunity to work with other clients with Alzheimer's, MS, Brain Trauma, Parkinson's and Dementia. I have great references and a clean background check, CRR certified and speak both English and Spanish. Through these experiences I realized how much I wanted to be there for those that could no longer help themselves. I don't see those I care for as clients but as extended family. I'm 54, married and live in Round Rock. I'm companionate, patient and dependable and treat my clients with the utmost love and respect I give my own parents. I truly enjoy bringing happiness into their lives. I'm outgoing and have a positive outlook on life. I attend church and help in my community. I Look forward to hearing from you and hope we're a perfect match! Thank you, Melissa W.

I have work in the hospital for the past 17years, I also work in home health care . I am a certified nurse aide. I also work in rehab for 6 years I became a caregiver because I love to help people. It is my calling. Caring for other give me joy to know that I was there , when someone needed me. I am now working on my register nurse degree, hope in the next year I will have my achievement. I am very a reliable person, honest, and give my best in every thing I do. I love to cook, read and spend time with my family. I am also a dog lover.

15 years ago I was in desperate need of a caregiver for my mother. It was very difficult to find an honest, caring, trustworthy person to care for her. I went through several different caregivers, including a family friend that didn't work out for the job. I ended up quitting my job and caring for her till she died 9 years later. At this point in my life I want to be able to help someone that needs special care because I know the negative impact it can take on the entire family when the care of a loved one is not being met. I think the sick and elderly are at our mercy to care for them.
