About Krystle

I have a natural instinct to care for and help those around me who are struggling. I take pride in being an extremely honest and reliable person. Caregiving was not really a choice for me, but more of a calling within my personal life. The people in my family that I've assisted can always count on me when they are in a bind, and it has made me think of all of those families out there that are not as fortunate as my own. When I had heard about this company from a coworker of mine at the Post Office, I was instantly drawn to the idea of extending my helping hand to others in need. I am now married and a family of two for now with me and my husband and I see this as a great opportunity to get off of my couch during the days. I'd love to meet new people and gain more life experiences as well. I currently hold a bachelors degree in criminal justice, but I have yet to do anything within the field. I cannot wait to dive into this opportunity and I am looking forward to assisting families with their loved ones! I would like to state that I do work a full time job with the USPS and the shift that I work allows me to be available from 11:00a.m. to 7:00p.m. daily. This should give care recipients a better idea of what my schedule can allow.

    Personal Family Experience
    I have cared for my paternal grandmother after she suffered a stroke in her eighties. My duties involved assisting her to the restroom as well as bathing her, grooming her and making sure she was eating and taking the proper medications. Shortly after she passed, my maternal grandmother moved in with my parents and while I was living there, I was responsible for running her errands and also seeing to it that she was eating properly on a daily basis. My care over the years with my family has ranged from as young as new born babies to full grown adults and in between. I have cared for a sister who struggles with a mental illness. I am in charge of shuttling her back and forth to her doctor's appointments when my parents go out of town. I have also helped my oldest sister with her three boys while they were newborn up to 12 years old. I have recently within the past year become a great companion for my uncle who is in his late sixties. He has been a long time family friend for as long as I have been alive. He has recently gone through a tough divorce that has left him a little shaken up. I have always enjoyed spending time with him, and I make it a point to spend time with him weekly or as our schedules allow. I still do favors for my family and friends every now and then whenever they need me as a last resort, because they always know in the end they can count on me.

    Always striving to provide top quality dignified care for the elderly with love, patients , empathy and respect. I became a caregiver 26 years ago because I have a soft spot for the elderly and I enjoy helping and caring for the aging population. What I enjoy best being a caregiver is, I get to learn a lot from my elderly clients life experiences! I enjoy conversation with them, lending a helping hand, and a listening ear. All while providing genuine companionship.
