Aloha! My name is Melinda and I was originally born and raised on Oahu, Hawaii. Culture and community are a huge part of my life, which is a reason I chose to join this site -I truly believe it takes a village to help each other live out our best, quality lives. For the last six and a half years, I have worked as a caregiver for individuals with developmental/physical challenges, those needing end of life care, and as a babysitter for infants and adolescents. Therefore, I am extremely comfortable assisting clients with bathing/hygiene, medication distribution, mobility, gastrostomy feeding, meal prep, household tasks, etc. I take each position seriously and would love to be of service in any way that I can!
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
