About Melissa

I became a caregiver when a family friend had a stoke and couldn't find someone to help or keep her company or enrich her time somehow. After her passing i realized that this was something I wanted to do and have done so for the past eight years. I am licensed, insured and currently working on my CNA/ Nursing license.

I am a fun, loving and easy to get along person with empathy towards my caregiving careers. I love to talk with new people and try to build up positive relationships as possible. I am willing with confident to provide support and safe for any gender on any care they need as possible. I always respect, provide independent and dignity for my client as possible. I always like to be a good listener to client not only to express themselves but I learnt different good deed from them the old fashioned way, and I take it. Most of the client i provide care for them will always consider as one of family member, for theirs to mine as well as mine for theirs. That is the achievement I always accomplished and proud of ,which I always left each family with good references.

I am a great caregiver because I will treat each person I care for with dignity, respect and kindness. I am responsible and dedicated to this line of work. I will help with maintaining a clean and comfortable as well as safe environment. I try to improve quality of life through adaptive progressive strategies. what attracted me to become a caregiver was helping to care for my grandmother and my mother, it made me feel good to be able to help them. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is bringing a smile on my clients face. A personal achievement I have is seeing a client get better after I care for them.
