About Carolyn

I became a caregiver because I enjoyed helping and taking care of people. I learn from the people I have taken care of and I love talking to them and helping them. I feel happy when I can put a smile on their face. One personal achievement I am proud of that I have given them hope and made them feel better about themselves and life. I am a happy person and enjoy being around the elderly and talking with them. I'm very honest and trustworthy. I would love to work here and I hope you give me the opportunity to show you how passionate I am about my work.

    I became a Caregiver because it gives me an opportunity to assist, encourage and make a difference in the lives of my clients. I enjoy making my clients comfortable, see them smile, love them as a person and listen to their many stories. A personal achievement I am proud of is when I heard a client who have never spoken a word in many months from the time I started working with her, turned towards me one day during lunch and asked me if she could have a piece of my lunch. I felt so good, I cried a little). I have been working as a Caregiver/Companion for over 15 years. I look forward everyday when working to having a wonderful and fulfilled day with my clients.

    The reason why I wanted to be a caregiver is because when I was a little girl; there was an elderly lady that lived down the street from me who had know one to help her at all. I would go sit with her and run errands for her just because that's what God wanted me to do, and I enjoyed it. I knew one day that I would do the same for others, who just needed a helping hand. I truly enjoy helping others and being a part of a support system for them as well. Now, on the other hand I take pride in what I do and I treat my clients like family; not like just another paycheck to collect. I'm honest and hard working, very diligent in providing the proper care that's needed. Also, being reliable is something I take very seriously because that person is counting on me to be there on time. If you want someone who is professional but kind, gets tasks done in a timely fashion, and is dependable then I feel that I am a great candidate. Thank you
