"Melanie is like a fairy godmother! I didn't even realize a service like hers existed, and we are so thankful we found her. She made what is a very overwhelming experience more straightforward and broken down into smaller steps. She helped my husband and I find an assisted living facility for my father-in-law and helped us every step of the way from determining which facilities would be a good fit, to tours, to pricing and ultimately planning a move in date. She continues to check in on my father-in-law as well. Thank you so much Melanie for everything you do!"
