About Melanie

I have always loved being able to help people and find ways to take care of them. I am a very people oriented person and love helping others. I have been doing this a long time. One thing I am very proud of is learning how to stand on my own feet and take care of myself after going through a personal loss.

I have worked at an Assisted Living when I was in high school and that by far was my favorite job. I love being in the environment of the elderly simply because they give you great life stories on how to better yourself for you and your work place, sitting down and talking to some of them have already helped me change my life for the better. I believe that my passion is with an elderly. I have an unconditional love for the elderly and I would love nothing more than to achieve my dream of being a Caregiver, knowing that I can help someone who can't always help themselves. I am very trustworthy, I am responsible in all my actions. I am 21 years old, I have been through a lot to make me the person I am today. I am self sufficient, and want what is best for everyone, I make sure every body else is taken care of before I take care of myself. I was in the JROTC program in high school, I was the Color Guard Captain, as well as the Drill Team Captain. I want to fulfill my dreams in being a care giver.

I'm a very positive person and able to promote positive vibes whenever I'm around. I became interested in caregiving when my mother became I'll in 2005, I cared for her until 2012 when she gained her heavenly crown. I really enjoy being a caregiver, it gives me joy to motivate encourage my clients to enjoy each day and look forward to what we have to do the next day. One personal achievement I am proud of is the time I had to care for and love my mother, it will forever be memories I can look back on.
