About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I have over 12 years experience caring for elderly clients. I earned an Associates degree in Human Services with a focus on Gerontology, and a BA in Psychology. I am Certified Dementia Care Practitioner and have worked with all levels from early onset to hospice care. I can help with Transportation Services and Meal Preparation and personal care. I take pride in helping families navigate the process of caring for their aging loved ones. The best part of my job is easing the stress of the family caregivers , and finding fun and creative ways to find moments of joy and engagement with my clients. I look forward to hearing from you! I am also a certified dementia care specialist
