About Shachi

I feel "Care" is the most lightly taken word. "To care" doesn't just mean to supervise someone physically, it goes beyond that and it takes a very emotional yet strong person to take care of someone else who doesn't just need a shoulder but also a little smile, and loads of fun. That's how I took care of a couple of people, my family and non-family (who eventually became a part of my life). I care about people the way I would expect others to care for me and that makes me a better caregiver. I never took it as a profession until I came to the US and accidentally did a couple of assignments, which made me realize that I am good at it. I am compassionate, have a pleasing personality, an inquisitive mind, a curious soul and blessed with an untiring smiling face. I can be a chatterbox or NOT (depending on the person's mood), can talk on different topics, a very good listener (love listening to the stories and experiences), creatively driven, love cooking (my previous clients can vouch for it :)), a coffee drinker and love weight lifting. I am a learner and never leave any chance to pick up something from others' experiences. I am a content/ digital marketer by profession, a wanderer, a nurturer and learner by nature. In short, I truly care about people and capable of connecting with them at different emotional levels. Last but not least, I come with great recommendations and I am very proud of it :)

Self
This was a personal experience. My mother-in-law was a cancer patient, and I took care of her for one whole year. This wasn't a smooth experience, and since it was family, I know how difficult it could be for the family members. Taking care of your loved ones takes a toll on your personal and professional life. You get drained mentally and physically and yet care a lot about the person who is so close to your heart. I have been through this and with my first-hand experience I know I am capable of handling someone who needs care, support, love, affection or just someone sitting nearby listening to the incredible life stories. Most of my experience is with my family members. I even took care of my 96-year old grandfather. He was bed-ridden and a very stubborn man but I loved him to the core and took care of him. I even worked as a volunteer at Brookdale Hospice, where I used to go and meet the seniors and try to make their stay a little soothing. I don't have any professional certification yet then why should you hire me? Because I know "caring" has a broad meaning and it can come from a person who has a heart and conviction to do it. It's NOT an easy task but it sure is REWARDING.

I highly recommend Shachi as a caregiver. She has been taking care of my dad for a little while now, and she has done an exceptional job. Shachi is reliable, attentive, and always goes above and beyond to ensure my dad is comfortable and well-cared for. She is also very compassionate and has a wonderful demeanor that puts my dad at ease. We are very grateful to have found such a skilled and caring caregiver like Shachi.

Four years ago I retired from nursing. Recently, I moved to Phoenix Arizona to be near family. I have one married daughter in Phoenix where I presently reside, and another married daughter in Peoria. My daughter and son-in-law in Peoria have one daughter and are currently expecting their second child. Prior to moving here, my most recent pertinent work experience was as a homecare non-medical provider to an senior woman in her Kansas home. Though hired as "non-medical care provider" much of my assistance with this woman did revolve around her medical needs as she was an end-stage cancer patient, as well as diabetic. I helped manage her medication schedule, transportation and ensuring she went to medical/doctor appointments. I also monitored her daily health needs such as blood pressure, blood sugars, etc. I would like to care for you or a loved one in your home, and assist you with some of your care needs. I am willing to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparations, exercise/physical therapy programs, transportation and occasional errands or grocery shopping. I enjoy reading, baking, music, walking and spending time outdoors, as well as spending time with my family. I would be delighted to come work for you! --Freida McMahon
