About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

My career as a companion/homemaker began when I spent 2 years caring for a lovely 96-year-old lady with Alzheimer's. That experience was very rewarding. As a teacher and a mom, I know it's important to have someone your loved-one feels comfortable with and whom you can trust. Since then, I have had the pleasure of caring for other elderly individuals with Alzheimer's and other dementia. Please see the reviews from some of those families.

Melisa was really wonderful at an extremely difficult time. She nurtured my mom as she would a family member. She was extremely kind and supportive. Thank you Melissa for supporting us. I felt St ease or the best I could to go to work knowing that you and David were with my mom!
