I became a Caregiver because I enjoy just being with the elderly. What I enjoy is listening to the stories and just giving a caring helping hand. My personal recent achievement making through my CNA program. I am presently preparing to take the state exams. I am a family orientated person I have two children in their late twenties and I am a proud grandmother of two. I enjoy reading, cooking, and I love the movies and music era of past years for example I love Frank Sinatra and I love the old movies dating back to the 1930's. My favorite film of all time is Gone with the wind and Clark Gable.

    Since I have a ailing mother whose is also a quadroplegic and lives in a nursing home, I have not only assist, coordinate with staff and personally care for her. The concern and worry of being a child of elderly parents is not unique to me; many adult children are now facing the same dilemma as I am. Therefore, I truly understand and empathize in finding an honest, responsible, caring, pro-active and kind caregiver. I can offer my time when the family is busy with daily life. Please feel free to contact me so we can speak further.
