Hello, my name is Melody! I have been working as an Occupational Therapist Assistant for the past 10 years with the elderly and recently with children. I love to be helpful and my goal as a companion/caregiver is to assist others in being as independent as possible in order for them to stay as active in their daily lives as possible.

    Melody cared for my adult daughter with cancer 4 hours a day for 6 weeks until she died. During that time, she fit in well with our household, looked for ways to improve my daughter's comfort. One of Melody's strongest assets is that she really knows how to talk to patients - even when they are ill and she sincerely cares for their comfort and well-being.
