About Sonia

Im a very friendly, enthusiastic, empathetic and giving person, I love to help others. My passion for caregiving started on my first job in Rossmoor as a wait staff where I found myself many times helping the elders to cut their food and sometimes even feed them. I would also sit with them during meals and just acompany them. Now at my latest job I started as a care provider and i fell in love with the care and time I was able to Spend with residents specially in the memory care unit where I became Medication Tech. I absolutely love being there for them when family can't be there and give them the care and love their loved ones trust the employees to give in their absence. Im very proud of the years I've worked around the elderly, the relationships I've created and finding a field that I absolutely love and enjoy working in.

I can say I am a good caregiver because I love what I do. I want helping other individual and giving the best care I can share them. My profession and being a caregiver molded me to be a strong person and love the work I do even in times of heavy and strenuous workload. I can give you testimonies and documents about the cases I handled. Let other discover who you are.. As I mention earlier I like to be a caregiver because I touch lives of people, especially the elders 100 percent I can make them feel that even in their last stage of life there are still people who can let them feel that they are important. The greatest achievement I have was able to send my daughter to a good school because of caregiving. Even though our work is tiring at the end of the day a client will tell you and will say....'THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU MADE ME COMPLETE. For me this are acievements.

Greetings! Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I'm a 44 year old single woman with a 15 year old daughter and 4 month old husky son. I've been a licensed phlebotomist for 16 years and have always worked in healthcare. My mother was in a wheelchair and completely dependent on me for her every day basic needs and it gave me a great appreciation for the dignity of other humans who need extra help. I also moved my 88 year old grandpa with severe dementia and stroke history into my home. He was always completely dependent on me. It was the most humbling experience and I learned so much about health and human needs. I am very loving and compassionate and I really miss my mother and grandpa. If I could help another family with their loved one, I would be completely dedicated to their total well being. I love animals, I love people, I grew up in the Sacramento delta and in the last couple years moved to the Bay Area.
