About Tonya

What makes me a great caregiver I love spending time with my patients getting to know them making them feel comfortable they just want to be loved and know that they are important talking to them walking with them. Being a caregiver is amazing helping people that can't do the things they're used to letting them know it's ok to need help I enjoy seeing them smile and happy I always wanted to help when I was 17 my grandmother lived next to this older lady I notice she never had visitors when I would cook or baked I would always make sure she had a plate I would make sure to check on her after school talk to her ask her if she needed anything and to just see her with a smile on her face was amazing
