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 a trusted and professional person who could readily adjust, learn and communicate, patient and persevering in dealing with people. I'd like to be of service to the elderlies and families who needs somebody to take care of them and treat them as my own relative or a new friend. I enjoy most being a caregiver in ways that I could impart my know- how in properly taking care of them. My personal achievement are : It widened my horizon of a good interpersonal relationship with the resident whatever his case is; imparted proper and decent care to the elderlies .

Why did I become a caregiver? I became a caregiver because of my desire to help others especially the elderly. My passion and dedication for seniors is very important to me. Nothing brings me great pleasure in assisting people that are in need of some care. My greatest achievement in life are my children. I am a mother of four and a grandmother of six. Teaching my children to respect and help others gives me the satisfaction that when in some giving time I need help, they will assist me just like I assist and care for others in the same manner. I'm not just a caregiver but a friend and if God gave me the patience, understanding and caring way to help others than I am here for that. God bless you and hope to assist anyone in need.
