About Brenda

I love helping people that cannot help themselves and those that need extra tlc. I have worked with people of all ages, as young as 17 to 104. I enjoy putting a smile on a persons face, especially if they are having a difficult time. I became a caregiver because I loved helping my grandparents as they got older and could not do the things they used to. I love listening to the stories people tell me as everyone has a story to tell. I have a lot of patience & am always a willing shoulder to lean on or at to listen. I pay attention to medications that a person takes & am aware of little things that another may not see. I have been a caregiver for 9 years. From a group home to a cbrf, to nursing home & now rehabilitation center. I love all of it!

I am a caring, compassionate, kind, patient, honest and reliable caregiver. I enjoy being a caregiver knowing I am helping people in various ways to achieve keeping their lives as normal and less stressful by doing all that is required and doing it well. I am the oldest of three and when my parents were at the age where they needed assistance I was there for them and realized they're so many other families in this situation and they are not able to be there for them. I enjoy meeting people and making a difference in their lives so that they can remain at home and not worry how will they do it.
