I Am not just getting started as a provider, I have been caring for aging seniors in residential and facilities for 15 years. I am committed to delivering superior personalized care. I believe in satisfaction and morale. Also committed to maintaining an at home, family like environment for seniors whose families are unable to provide at home care. I will get to know their needs , dislikes and comfort level and make certain their health and safety is not compromised. My passion for caring for seniors started with caring for my mother in-law that was diagnosed with dementia and I cared for her from 1996 -2006. I still miss her because she was like a 2nd mother to me.
My name is damaris. Have been a caregiver for the past 3 yrs. I like caregiver giving job because I like interacting with either the seniors and the children. My motive is to give best care and make sure the family and the person you give care too is happy.
I became a caregiver after watching my mother suffer with health problems for many years. I spent a lot of time with her in the hospital before she passed away, and after living with her sickness, I decided that I wanted to be a healthcare provider. I feel , no I know this is my calling. I have cared for many people, and made a difference in their life for the better and I am very proud of this. I love helping and caring for people.I am a very trustworthy , and caring lady and would have your best interest at heart always.
I believe I would be a great caregiver your family. I am passionate about building strong relationships with people, caring for them, and helping them set personal goals and having their needs met. For the last several years I have worked as an educator with Boston’s urban youth and families. Each year I developed a classroom management system that allowed students to develop the social and academic skills they needed to succeed in the classroom and in the world. I was also a Life Skills Coach to an Autistic young male adult. I assisted him with the skills necessary to be a positive part of his community in Allston, MA. I prepared him with the skills needed to live self-sufficiently by developing his social skills in the work environment using various behavioral plans with incentives. I feel that I am qualified for this position because of the experiences I have had in the Boston public school system, as well as my attention to detail, my focus and commitment, and my ability to work in a team environment. I have an ability to connect with adults and communicate openly with family members. My experience and skillset make me an excellent fit for a position.

Caring for seniors and enriching their lives brings great joy to my heart. With an educational background in physical therapy and years of direct experience with seniors, I understand the key to aging gracefully. It’s not rocket science, just basic common sense.
Over many years, I have developed an innovative program for promoting graceful aging, independence, and dignity for seniors. The focus is a holistic whole person approach for facilitating physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Along with providing a comprehensive wellness program, patient care advocacy, and other specialized services, I believe in making life fun with a wide variety of meaningful programs and events. George Bernard Shaw once wrote, "We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing."
Many programs and special events I organized for retirement communities have appeared in the News and Observer, Herald Sun, Apex Herald, and other newspapers. Two were covered by WTVD ABC news 11.
I am a very clean individual who loves cooking.
I love to help those in need.
I enjoy the companionship the most in this business.
Each position I have held has been long term.
