About Jennifer

What are your personality traits or expertise that help you be a great caregiver? I believe I am patient, considerate and understanding. I am very observant in learning each person's likes or dislikes so that I can give quality care that best fits each individual. What attracted you to being a caregiver? I've helped my husband's 85-year-old grandmother in the past with medication reminders, Doctors appointments, meal prep, grocery shopping, so naturally, I can help others with those things as well. What do you enjoy most about being a caregiver? I enjoy the new friendships I make as well as being able to be that person that can help with ADLs

I became a Caregiver because I enjoy helping others. I like being able to assist others with chores and duties they cannot fulfill themselves, as well as being a companion to the elderly. A personal achievement I have made is making a difference in someone else's life. I have achieved this by tutoring many students within various school districts in all subjects, and youths both incarcerated and released, but were on probation. I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice Admin/Human Services, and plan to start on my Master's degree in the near future in Social work or Psychology. I love spending time with family and worship my four grandsons, they are a true blessing to me! ***My rates vary depending on the type of care needed and for multiple people. I also charge double time on holidays. Thank you, and have a wonderful day!!!
