As a care giver I find the most important attribute is compassion, the second being willing to apply love as if it were your own family member. I have been in the business of care giving for over a decade and I take pride in the service I provide. I am a people person and love to talk and am always interested in new business ventures.

I have a strong caregiving background with my First Aid and CPR Certifications and over 18 years experience as a caregiver. I am confident in my ability to become a valuable employee of yours. I am trustworthy, knowledgeable, and responsible. I take great pride in my performance as a companion and caregiver and know that the comfort of the client is my number one priority. No lifting! I would be more than willing to attend an interview in order to discuss this position and/or qualifications in person.
