About Heidi

I absolutely enjoy helping the elderly. I have taken care of both my grandmothers who suffer from dementia and diabetes among other health conditions. I also have experience with many clients who made this growing career very fun. I knew this career path of helping those in need was my call. I like to make them feel comfortable and happy. What a great way to give back to those who once cared for us. The elderly don't need any of the materialistic things in life, what they want and need is great companionship. Someone who is patient, loving, caring, fun, outgoing, and has a huge strive and passion for assisting them in anything they may need especially putting a smile on their face, which brings me huge satisfaction. That someone is me. I look forward in meeting you very soon! :)

    senior helpers
    As a CNA, working for this agency was my first step to such a great career. I was the caregiver to a client in a senior facility where I would monitor him due to his health conditions, assist him to restroom, assist him in eating and most importantly made him laugh, sing and enjoy his stay. Further on I became his private caregiver because his family really enjoyed me and decided to take him home where I would care for him. I would assist in bathing, eating, preparing meals during the day, changing him, clean and maintain his stay very clean and proper. But especially companionship. This is when I began doing private care in home. Where I would assist in all my clients needs.

    I started out caregiving when I took care of my grandmother and that was in 1986, she had pancreatic cancer she was such a trooper. To make my patients feel comfortable is number one whether a smile or running errands, doctors appointments, and always make them feel secure and respected In their life. I love to make them feel comfortable. My personal achievement is to make them happy and comfortable, to be that ear and listen to their stories. I feel that companionship is very important! I am a caring person and I also speak Spanish, Family oriented.

    About I am a mature, physically strong, dependable, and compassionate Pacific Islander, who love being a caregiver. Over the years, I"ve learnt and gained useful information, experience and valuable skill from great caregivers, nurses, physical therapists, doctors and even from the recipients of my care and have utilized them in my work to be the caregiver that I am today. So, I'm able to comfortably provide the care needs in any phase and setting of caring for the elderly and disabled. My experience range from companionship to total care, where I assist my client with all activity of daily living. I know that the best care to provide to anyone is the kind that you would want for your own..... and using common sense is always a plus. I am familiar with most equipment in home care. I am open minded, and also, a team player who is willing to learn and even go the extra mile to maintain the quality of life and ensure safety of your loved ones.@ their home, the place of their greatest comfort.
