About Marcela

I am a gentle and out going person. I love to build relationships with people of all walks of life in a deep level built from love and respect. I have been happily married to my husband for almost 12 years. I am currently a mom to 5 children, and we are hosting two foreign exchanges students leaving 7 children under our roof. I have experience working with children, from ages 0-18 specifically with a background of trauma. I spent four years working for the State Department of Child Protective services being a licensed foster parent. I spend my free time volunteering as a youth mentor for high school age students through our church. After watching the process of my Grandfather go through Alzheimer's disease and my Grandfather in law with dementia, I developed a desire to work with older adults. I am excited to have the opportunity in my career as being a professional caregiver. I look forward to meeting you.

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
