Melanie’s Bio

I am a very compassionate, responsible, empathetic, friendly, hard working, and honest person who enjoys being among people of all ages, backgrounds, ethnicity, and cultures. I feel that my education, experience, and passion to work with individuals as a care giver and/or companion makes me ideal for this position.
I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Family Life Education and an Associate’s Degree in Psychology. I have experience working with the elderly as both a companion and a direct care worker. I have been trained to providing emotional support as a care giver and I am currently obtaining my ABA certification (Applied Behavior Analyst) and renewing my CPR and Emergency First Aid certification currently through a hybrid course, certified by the American Red Cross. I am also more than happy to help with housekeeping, cooking, gardening/yard work, shopping, and running errands. I am also intermediate in the Polish language and some French.
