About MELANIE

i AM GIVING, LOVING, CARING, COMPASSIONATE, DEPENDABLE PERSON. I FEEL THIS IS MY CALLING TO HELP THOSE IN NEED. IT GIVES ME GREAT PLEASURE TO KNOW THAT I'VE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE'S LIFE JUST BY ASSISTING THEM WITH A BATH OR PREPARING A MEAL. I TREAT EVERYONE AS IF THEY WERE MY FAMILY OR THE WAY I WANT TO BE TREATED IF I WAS IN NEED. I AM ALWAYS THE GO TO PERSON WHEN SOMEONE NEEDS ASSISTANCE WITH THEIR CARE. I LOVE TO SEE THE SMILE ON A CLIENTS FACE JUST TO KNOW THAT SOMEONE IS THERE TO ASSIST THEM. MANY CLIENTS KNOW THAT THE CAREGIVERS ARE THE ONLY ONES THEY WILL SEE.
