About Shelly

I feel that I am a great caregiver because my heart is into uplifting others and making their lives happier. I feel strongly that as in any friendship or professional relationship, it is attention to detail that matters. We all want to be heard and seen and I make it a point to be a very good listener, and to pay close attention to just what is important to someone else. I am a person of great compassion and empathy and I have an ability to hear people's hearts, their stories. and their needs. I am a very capable caregiver, organized, intelligent and able to deal effectively in emergency situations, but I feel that it's the little personal things that add up to a great experience. I became a caregiver because I have a desire to serve. I am gratified to treat others the way I would want my loved ones and myself to be treated. I am proud of the fact that I have made a profound difference in the lives of those that I have been called to serve, especially in times of difficulty and at the end of their lives. I am open to work with people of all ages.

I am a caregiver for 10 years, all of my previous clients family treat me like their own up to this time, even their friends. I treat every client I work with as a family that's why I like this job. I grew up with my grandparents and that's where my compassion for this job is coming from. I like having conversations with them, hearing their stories are very interesting.
