About Melissa

Experience: 2 yrs

I was paid to take care of my boyfriend's father, He was in his late 70s with Parkinson's disease. Some of my duties included dressing, cleaning, cooking, taking him to doctor appointments, ensuring he performs all physical therapy assignments, paid his bills, errands, groceries, and most importantly, I became his best friend. We went to the movies theaters together, ate out at restaurants, walked through shopping malls. He truly enjoyed my companionship and vice versa. I am a very empathetic, loving, and compassionate human being for the elderly. My mom also was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at 50 years old. So I know how it feels like to want a reliable and loving individual to care for your loved ones.
