About Melissa

I am compassionate,patient, kind, honest and hardworking Mother of 4. I love getting to know new people and take pride in being able to help in any field I'm needed. It's not just about a job but getting to know my clients on a personal level. I believe being a caregiver takes a special kind of person who works not only on a professional level but from the heart. If I don't know something I'm open to learning new skills so I can better assist my clients. My greatest achievements are my 4 Amazing kids. I love being a Mother and I teach my children to have kind, accepting, loving hearts. My goal is to raise honest, hardworking members of society. One of my biggest accomplishments was graduating the phlebotomy course at LBCC. Unfortunately I never found a job in that field upon completion.

I am pursuing a career with a reputable company where I can utilize my skills and gain further experience while enhancing the company's productivity and reputation. Even though I do not have a C.N.A certification as of yet, I truly believe I'm every bit as skilled. In addition I feel I have intangibles that set me apart from the average caregiver, hopefully I'll be able to use the skills I've learned over the years to help bring a higher level of service to the elderly.
