Hi my name is Tia, I have over two years of caregiving experience. I am a caring, honest person. I love helping people especially the elderly because it reminds me of my grandma. I am 25 years old, I have a cat named keeks that's 2 years old

I am naturally maternal being the oldest of 3 boys and being the only girl in my family. I don't have any kids of mine own so being a caregiver fulfills those maternal needs in a way of providing care to others. I love to cook and give my residents a great meal. What attracted me to being a caregiver was the growth within the companies that I can continue on with. Also caregiving just came naturally to me because I helped take care of my grandpa who was in his late 80's from the ages of 13-adulthood I helped take care of my great grandpa who lived with us. I carried that into my job field, and it just came naturally to me. I enjoy being a person there who they trust and know they can count of for good quality care. Nothing makes me more happy than hearing "thank god you're here" because that feeling of being trusted by my residents to make the right choices and be there for them really means a lot to me. A personal achievement I have is learning how to bake and cook better for my resident's. Also becoming ultimately stronger as a person when handling these intense emergency situations, they'll prepare you for the real world and real scenarios and that has made me more confident in my day to day life.
