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 enjoy helping client's that I assist with meal prep, exercising, grocery shopping, organizing, medications reminder, companionship and light housekeeping. 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. I take pride in learning new information and I continue to learn and grow by taking online courses that Carelinx offers. The courses helps me to be the best caregiver I can be. I also have 95% of positive reviews and a 100% clean driving record. I hope to add your love one's on my care team.

I'm very passionate about being a Caregiver. I never had the pleasure of meeting any of my grandparents so I have always wonder what it felt like. So being a Caregiver has introduced me to wonderful people. I have enjoyed baking cookies, listening to old love stories, as well as old war stories. I can surely see and feel how special grandparents and Elderly really are. I love the warmth of smiles, the hugs, and the sincere gratitude that's shared. I love just being a trustworthy companion to the most vulnerable. It's really heartfelt.
