About Yolanda

I am a great caregiver because I am passionate and have compassion about being a provider. Growing up I was attentive to the needs of my elders and help care for my grandma the last five years of her life during her fight with diabetes. I am a very active participant in my community helping not only those mature in age but, youth as well. My desire is to impact the world, changing one life at a time by displaying love. And I achieve this by mentoring, educating, and lending my hands.

I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with the elderly. I enjoy making them feel special. Making them laugh. Listen to their stories about their youth and family. I started as a live in five days a week for a couple, both in wheelchairs. After that I've taken care of three other people, two of whom passed away. I can give you references from those families. Also I have references from many friends that I've known for over twenty years. I've been a self employed live in for almost three years. After some time you get to feel like family. I've had a background check. Please let me know if you would like to meet. Thanks.

I’m a very compassionate person who enjoys helping others. I'm a very punctual and very dependable. I became a caregiver because I'm good at it and I truly enjoy it. I feel I can make a big difference in someone's life. I make sure I come across more like a friend then a caregiver. I know it can be very hard for someone to give up there independence. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I love gardening, fishing and taking walks. My biggest accomplishment was raising my three beautiful daughters. I'm truly blessed! I have extensive medical knowledge through acting as the caregiver to numerous friends, family members and others.
