About Virginia

I am a fun and loving person with lots of room for growing and learning. I have over fifteen years of experience in this field and til this day enjoy my job as a caregiver, with specialized experience in working with people who have diabetes, Alzheimera, Dementia, and Parkinsons. I have a great respect for those who have limited mobility and show compassion for each and everyone of my clients by giving them the right to privacy and dignity. Working in this field has taught me a lot about patience which is something that is very much required with any job; the last thing any family should worry about is the safety and comfort of a loved one being in the care of a complete stranger. With my positive background and excellent references you should have no problems finding trust in me, and I have confidence that I can deliver the services that most will find difficulties in. With that being said, I hope to one day meet you and be that helping hand you seek.
