My name is Michelle I am a proud mom of three grown sons and blessed nana to five little boys. I truly believe that senior caregiving is my gift from God . I am a very loving and patient person with a big heart. I did childcare for eight years while my boys were young and also have experience working as a paraprofessional in the school district with emotional and behavioral disturbed children. I adopted a grandma and grandpa about 25 years ago ... OK not really adopted them however became very special friends with them as they filled the void in my life because my dad passed away at a early age. This sweet couple would come to my house for meals , play with my kids , attend their school functions and cheer them on from the sideline during baseball and basketball games. Fast forward they needed a family to help care for them as they aged. I would bring the boys over to visit take them to their doctor abs dentist appointments, grocery shopping , assist with meal prep for the week and filling the daily pill containers. We'd enjoy mini day trips to see the changing leaves and wildlife. I'd also take them to friends funerals ect. I'd just help them with needs that they had until it was too hard for them to live at home and then I would visit them twice a week at the care facility . It was going to the care facility that I realized that was my dream job to help and spend time with the elderly unfortunately however my regular job of real estate sales provided the income I needed so I've been spending time since they're passing working part time at the nursing homes. It makes me feel good to make a difference in others lives!

a good worker, patients, caring and understands the needs of the clients. I just like to work with the individuals that needs help, because I used to work at dementia care unit for almost 9 years here in Dassel. I just quit last August 24th 2018 and part time at AME community (group home) for 3 years now. I like communicating with the clients and help them out when they needs help and sometimes there is a challenge, but that is part of a job too. Provides the best care to the clients.

I know this sounds lame, but I always knew I wanted to be a nurse. I love the rewarding feeling I get from giving. Now, when I was a kid that was another story. I carried all of my toys in a brown grocery bag and you would have to fight me to get me to share! I love listening and learning from others. I feel that this has only improved my caregiving skills. I have worked with all ages, races, religions, disabilities and I treat each person the same. We all deserve dignity and respect regardless of our situation. I'm kind, but love to laugh and have a good time. Most importantly I know how to act appropriate for the situation. I believe an achievement that I can truly be proud of everyday is that I have the ability to take life as it comes and always put things into perspective. I hold my family close to my heart. I can provide a reciprocal relationship of professional care and companionship.

Giving people in need a genuine care and support is something I am incredibly enthusiastic about. The opportunity to significantly impact the lives of people i would be assigned is what appeals to me the most about this work.

It's my privilege and an honor to serve unique individuals and to advocate for dignity and respect for all.
