About Samantha

Hello I am Samantha. I believe I am a good caregiver because I treat my clients as if they were my family. I make sure they know that they aren't just a job to me. I make sure they know I care about them. I became a caregiver because I enjoy helping people and making their lives better. I enjoy knowing that I am helping them stay in their home where they are comfortable and will make the most progress as long as possible. I enjoy getting to know my clients, what they like, their hobbies, passions, and what makes them feel the most comfortable with me being there.
