About Melissa

Since I was a young girl, I have always taken great interest in caring for others. I usually am able to tell what someone I'm caring for needs before they even know they need it. I take great pride in being able to make someone laugh or smile as I am a big kid at heart.. You're only as old as you feel.. To me, being a caregiver is effortless, although I put my all into my patients and their needs.

I ensure that all of my customers receive their orders in a prompt and efficient manner as well as maintaining optimal temperatures. Polite and professional is not only suggested in this type of work, it is essential. I am both polite and professional to not only my customers, but merchants and servers as well. In less words; I treat every order as if it was my own and every customer or employee I come in contact with, as if they were my own family. Working my way into a pandemic, my attention to details became a godsend when it came to my paycheck and customer's reviews.

Hello, I am a middle aged woman with 10 years experience working in a Nursing Home at the beginning of my career, I started at age 14 until 24. I was responsible for all care of 18 women: medicine distribution, cooking meals, bathing, dressing, arts & crafts and communicating. I then spent 15 years at a foster care agency as a family consultant, working directly with children and families in the foster care system. I became a foster parent and ultimately an adoptive parent. Currently, I own Kindred Spirits, a Healing & Art business. I make homemade non chemical bath and beauty products using essential oils, painting, woodwork and am a Reiki Master. My passion is creativity, healing, spreading love & light to others and just being a good listener.
