My name is Melanie, and I am, above all, a wife, mom, daughter to my 92 year-old Momma who lives with us, Gramma, sister, Aunt, etc. Family is important to me; a healthy and happy family. I have always been the nurturer or caregiver in the family, among my peers, in my jobs, with my co-workers and even with strangers that need assistance. My grandparents lived with us when I was little and I started babysitting at 10. Throughout my life I have worked with severely disabled children and adults, developing children's imagination and educating them, created programs for all ages, assisted seniors who needed care in the home and personally lost loved ones to Cancer. I am also familiar with the end of life and/or hospice process. My Momma has short term memory loss and I have taken care of several dementia patients thru end of life. I feel contentment in knowing assistance, time, care and respect I can give to another human makes a positive impact in their life and can give family members a bit of peace knowing their loved one is safe. I try my best to not be a proud person, but I must say one of the best achievements in my life is raising three children to be productive, responsible, respectful and loving adults. My husband, myself and Momma just moved to the Panhandle this last November and I am looking forward to experiencing all the things this area has to offer.

To significantly contribute to the productivity and viability of an individual , where my past training and customer service skills can be an asset to a person.I am highly motivated and have great written and oral skills. I desire to be a potential asset to a family as I am always ready to gather more knowledge and experience.

I have been a caregiver off and on since shortly after high school. I love working with the elderly and cherish the bonds I am able to build with each and every client. My long experience in the field has taught me patience and the ability to adopt to different situation.

So one thing about me, I am a certified caregiver & have trained experience also I may as well been a caregiver my whole life, I took care of my cousin who was paralyzed, I've taken care of all of my grandparents and people I don't even know. I have a huge heart, I am a sensitive person, I am super sweet & down to earth. I'm an old soul, I would rather hang out with elderly people than people my age. I don't have much actually work experience due to I worked at an assisted living facility & it just wasn't for me I wanted to work in home care something part time not as much on me because I also am fixing to be going to school. I am not CPR trained or certified yet but I plan on doing that ASAP, when it comes to taking care of people, I know when it comes to my granny & I know I would be the same way myself, I want them to feel comfortable, I want to know the certain way they like things, their food, or the things they don't like so I can do it right, I want to gain a companionship with them, treat them like family & know that I honestly enjoy and need companionship just as me. I want them to know I am there for them that they can feel comfortable around me to ask or say what they need or feel. I also have reliable transportation, valid ID, and valid auto insurance. I don't mind taking them anywhere they want or need to go. I really need this right now, it gives me a purpose, it makes me happy. I'm available to work immediately, I would even consider being a live in caregiver if anyone needed one.

I enjoy creating relationships with people. I have always been the "mom friend" in the group; always making sure the people close to me are treated fairly and get what they need. I've always been a nurturing soul and taking care of people is almost like a reflex for me. It makes me happy knowing the care that I give is making a difference.

I am a nurturer by nature. I love caring for the elderly and building a bond they, and their family can trust. I have been a care giver for 17 years! I enjoy every minute including the ups and downs. I never thought that would be my purpose in life, and to love what I do an be grateful everyday to get up and go to "work", however, they say "you'll never work a day in your life if you love what you do" and that is a true statement!
