About Jamie

I became a caregiver in 2006 in Meridian MS. I worked at the State Hospital Group Homes dealing with the Mental Ill. There I found a passion taking care of individuals who need my assistant and loving support. I now work with the Disable and Special Needs here in South Carolina. Myself have been disable before for 7 years with seizures. Now I am seizures free. I find it amazing that becoming a CAREGIVER is very career opportunity. Helping different people to cope with their disabilities or just someone who just like to sit down and talk.

    I like to put a smile on the clients face , making them happy, making them look forward to seeing me. It is in my heart to help people & to do what it takes to get the job done for them. Just to know that I made there day. The client can't wait to see me again because I did make a difference in their day & also in their life. What ever it is that they want to do like go shopping go visiting , out to eat or just sit down & have a conversation. I have been a special needs & handicap bus driver for the school system for over 15 yrs. I have took care of elderly gentleman for over 12 years. Also worked in a retirement home & I just love it, to know when I go home that I made a person day or made them smile. That are happy & can't wait until the next day when I see them. I also clean, (houses, apartments) or just help with whatever your needs are.
