About Melissa

Hi, I’m Melissa Toms — and I created Call Melissa because I’ve always believed in showing up for people, especially when they need a little extra support.

​

I began my career in healthcare after earning my degree in Dental Hygiene in 1995. Over the years, I worked with patients in many places I was lucky to call home — from Vancouver and Switzerland to Minneapolis and Calgary. No matter where I was, one thing never changed: I loved helping people feel comfortable, heard, and cared for.

​

In 2005, my husband Ryan and I returned to Redvers, and we became a family of three in 2013. After retiring from dental hygiene, I found myself wanting to stay connected to meaningful work. That led me to the Redvers Activity Centre, where I supported individuals living independently with their daily life skills. I truly enjoyed that role — and it opened my eyes to how many people in our community could benefit from regular, reliable support.

​

That’s when Call Melissa came to life.

​

Now, I help with things like driving to appointments, running errands, accompanying clients on social outings, or just stopping by to check in and say hello. For many, I provide peace of mind — especially for families who don’t live nearby but want to know their loved ones are in good hands.

​

Whether I’m offering a ride or simply being present, I show up with intention — and with the kind of help I’d want for my own loved ones.​ If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and easy to talk to, I’d love the opportunity to support you or someone you care about.
