About Arlette

It is a profession that found me. It started with a next door neighbor I had once. She was an elderly lady and needed help with small things in the beginning and then gradually our relationship grew to the point where I was completely taking care of her and I enjoyed her company so much it didn't seem like a job to me. I fell in love with being a caregiver and the rest is history. My personal achievement would be going back to school and graduating at the top of my class. It's never too late to reinvent yourself. I have since went on to work at a senior living community and have had a lot of fun working there. I recently received my CNA license.

I have a very big heart, I'm one of those people that most feel comfortable with me right away, enough that they will share very personal story's with me in a store, a parking lot, or walking down the street. Im also the type that is loved by every grumpy Gentleman I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I enjoy hearing stories from my clients, there is always something to learn from everyone we meet. For as long as I can remember, I've always been the mama bear type caring for everyone. I'm also very independent, out going, open minded, and can do anything that anyone else can do. From fixing a broken sprinkler to installing the whole system
