About Desiree

I am a very loving and caring person. I became a caregiver because I love to help others and I enjoy being there for anyone in time of need. It gives me joy knowing I can be of service especially to those who are in need, I love to be depended on. One of my personal achievements that I am proud of is that I took the CNA course and completed it right out of high school also with being such a young single mother.

    $16.00/hour · San Jose, CA
    My name is Sabrina and I have been employed as a senior & disability caregiver for over 15 years, as well as caring for my aging grandparents. The ability to give someone freedom of independence while assisting them with the things they need help with most is something that really makes me glad to be a caregiver. I find it to be a very rewarding experience. I also think it can brighten a person's day just to know they are getting the best care possible, and that they are receiving it in a dignified, respectful manner. I have experience with personal care (including incontinence & ostomy care), transfers, meal planning/ preparation, medication assistance, housekeeping, laundry, companionship, computer lessons, etc. I've been CPR & First Aid certified for over 12 years. I have also previously done daytime shifts, and 12-hour awake overnight, and 24 hour shifts. I'm upbeat, and have a strong work ethic. At the end of the day, it's not just a job, it's an opportunity to help someone in need of assistance. Hope to hear from you soon!
