About Linda

I am a retired school teacher. I am a caring and loving person who is organized, prompt, and willing to treat your loved ones like I would treat my own. As a teacher, I had to handle unexpected behaviors, situations, and family dynamics. I am attracted to being a caregiver, because I want to still work with people, but in a more personal setting where I can meet the needs of not only the client but the families too! In addition to teaching, I have also been a pharmacy tech and am familiar with medications and reactions. I feel I could be an empathetic caregiver, because I lost my husband 5 years ago to cancer. He desired to remain at home and I cared for him there. I understand loss and the need to continue living life after the loss of a loved one. My fee is negotiable, so please contact me to see if I would be a perfect fit for your family.

I grew with the elderly and am close to the elderly especially women, because I didnt have a grandmother when I grew up. And I love hearing their stories.

Greetings: I've had a passion for helping others since a small child. This led me to obtain my CNA certification in 2021 while I complete by Bachelors of Science in Biology. I've completed a program with the UAB's School of Medicine to further gain insight into the medical field. I hope to someday become a doctor specializing in Geriatrics.
