About Merian

Experience: 3 yrs

I'm friendly, compassionate, and patient. I care for seniors because I saw how much they need someone to care for them physically and emotionally after my mom's Alzheimer's diagnosis. I seek a job that provides experience to help me care for my mom when I visit her nursing home. Seniors have always been important to me, but my love for them grew when I started visiting my mom in the nursing home and I saw firsthand how much care they really need. In my free time, I spend time with my family, friends, and daughter. I enjoy walking, watching shows, and going to the movies. I'm a bit scared of dogs at first, but I'll get over it once I get to know them. My skills include patience, communication, and empathy. Please note I'm only available for part-time, as coverage or as a one time occurrence as I do work a full time job.
