About Shelley

I love what I do. I have always had a penchant for the elderly, especially sweet elderly ladies. When I was a child, I used to volunteer at the local convalescent home. I feel it is a win/ win as I gain so much from interacting with my clients. I gain love and valuable wisdom and insight whilst they are cared for like I would care for my mother or grandmother. I thoroughly enjoy my clients and look forward to our time together including engaging activities suited to each individual client and lots of hugs and laughter.

I am a caregiver with more than 10 years of experience, I chose to become a senior caregiver is because it comes naturally to the family. I like this field because I am known for my sensitivity, my giving nature and my nurturing desire to help those who need help. l like being a caregiver because it is the most rewarding thing I can do and my passion is to put others first. Personal Achievement that I am really proud of is that I can care for seniors that need my help. Somethings that make me a great caregiver is that I am a cheerful person, very honest, reliable, hard working person and very eager to excel in everything I do.

Hello. I have been a caregiver in Oakmont, an adult community in Santa Rosa since June 2015. I have worked with clients who suffered strokes, falls, dementia, cancer, back surgeries and just about everything in between. Any one of these families would happily give me an excellent reference-- so please do check my references. Prior to Oakmont, I worked for different hospices in Walnut Creek and San Luis Obispo while raising my family. I genuinely enjoy working with clients in their final stages of life. They have taught me so much about how to live fully despite the inevitable limitations of aging. Some days are better than others for all of us. On the tougher days, I try to keep everyone focused on appreciating the here and now. I also like to keep clients active both physically and mentally, if possible. I enjoy preparing meals loaded with fresh fruits and greens and I make a mean stew too.
