About Linda

I have been working in the medical field for 20 years. I started as a Certified Medical Assistant, working in Family Practice, Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. After 8 years or so, I went into Medical Research, spending 6+ years in Psychology Research, working with patients with Dementia, Alzheimers, Depression, Anxiety, etc. I relocated to Florida, in order to help with my dying mother. During that time , I also worked full time in Oncology Research, caring for people with Cancer, Diabetes, and many other health problems. The reason I started in Medical Field is due to working as an apartment manager. I was in charge of 122 apartments for 10 years. 48 of those apartments were elderly people who daily needed assistance. I thoroughly enjoyed looking after them. I find it very rewarding knowing that the time in which these people are in my care, I am making them as comfortable and content as possible. I am an extremely caring, nurturing person and enjoy taking care of people.

I became a caregiver because I have a deep passion for helping others and bringing joy to their lives. My journey into caregiving was inspired by my own experience as a parent to a child with special needs, which has given me a unique perspective and understanding of compassionate care. I take pride in being someone my clients can trust to not only get the job done but to go above and beyond to ensure their happiness and satisfaction. My primary goal as a caregiver is to provide exceptional support while fostering a genuine connection with those I care for. I strive to be more than just a worker I aim to be a dependable companion. I enjoy cooking, gardening, and caring for animals, and I always incorporate my skills to create a warm and supportive environment for my clients. With 19 years of experience in caregiving, I've worked in various settings, including nursing home facilities and private duty care. Each role has reinforced my love for this work and my commitment to making a difference in my clients' lives. I specialize in supporting adults and children with special needs across a variety of conditions, and I take immense pride in providing the care, attention, and compassion they deserve. Helping others brings me joy and fulfillment, and I'm dedicated to ensuring that every individual I work with feels valued, respected, and cared for.
