I was a nurses aid in Texas for a year before I moved back to Tucson. I enjoyed helping other people very much, so I decided to become a Certified Caregiver when I returned to Tucson. I working in a 10 bed assisted living home from 2014 to June 2019. I currently work in a memory care unit. I am very kind hearted and understanding, and am able to anticipate the needs of any and all of the residence I care for on a daily basis. What I most enjoy about being a Caregiver are the happy faces I get to see every day, the appreciation and thanks that I receive from those that I am helping, and knowing that I am helping make poeple's lives a little bit better for them. I also love to care for pets. I currently walk a residents dogs.
