About Shannon

I have become a caregiver naturally through the care of my own children, my grandmother and father. Both my father and grandmother have passed on and I was able to be with them and provide care during their last years and minutes of life. Going to convalescent homes throughout my youth and consistently visiting my older neighbors is something I take pleasure in. As my children grow, I now have the time and a desire to work outside of the home to help meet the needs of other older folks who need laughter, encouragement and care. I am a Certified Postpartum Doula with Childbirth International.

I care for the momma after she has given birth, making sure she is well in mind, body and spirit. Listening to her speak of her fears (if any), questions she might have of newborn care, and generally being a source of encouragement and help around her home.

I am an awesome caregiver because I simply love people! I love animals too. I will treat you and your family, and even your pets as if they are my own! I am CPR certified and I have several years of experience taking care of people with different challenges/ disabilities (including my own mom who has Alzheimer's). I am a very loving, caring, and thoughtful individual with lots of patience. I love helping people and taking care of them. I am committed to doing my best, and ensuring each, and every individual is respected, and completely taken care of. I feel that there is nothing more rewarding, then doing something you love. Meet me, and you'll see that my heart is really in it! Please don't hesitate to give me a chance. I know you won't be disappointed. Thanks for your time, and good luck in your search! Thank you, Robin
