About Silvia

The desire to help others to obtain proper services regardless of cultural and ethnic background, paired with my education and experience is part of the reasons to be regarded as a great caregiver who takes the time to understand the needs of people. I do have the ability to listen, make an informed and educated decision, take the lead and build trust with dependability and sense of strong commitment to clients and family members. I work well with all ages especially elderly and children. I am a non-smoking female, medical assistant and natural health consultant, with extended experience in-home care for individuals and families, who need assistance for themselves or their loved ones. In the last 20 years I have worked with clients who needed care with Alzheimer’s, MS, memory care, and many other ailments in the Sacramento Metropolitan Area. I have a very reliable and clean vehicle and could drive to appointments, perform light house work, laundry, meal preparation, and overall assistance in the day to day task. Currently I am working on my degree in Psychology and my goal is to work as a counselor with PTSD, MS and ADHD.
