About Destiny

My name is Destiny Chalk. I am a loving and caring person that believes everyone should have a resource to help better an individuals life. I began taking care of my grandmother at a young age; 12 years old between me and my cousin only a year older. She had a list of many different problems. This showed me health can deteriorate fast and the extra support for a person from outside places can help. I enjoy being able to help a person and creating bonds. I enjoy allowing the family to still have their flexibility while making sure their loved ones are in great hands. Seeing myself make a impact on another persons life makes me happy and gives me motivation. A personal achievement that I am proud of is taking care of my grandma for 7+ years with very little to no help. Also getting my first job at 18 years old with individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Hi, I'm Shawna, \"What makes me a great caregiver?\" I've raised six amazing children as a single mother and after 20 years of helping people feel good about themselves in the beauty industry, I took on the role of my 92 year old grandmother's caregiver. I cared for her for two years and I feel I've found my calling. I am, by nature, a very nurturing person so I'm in my element as a caregiver. I have excellent work ethics, I'm organized and very easy to get along with. I have a great respect for the elderly because they have paved the way for me and my children. I only pray that when my time comes, my children will take as good a care of me.

My aging mother who suffered from early-onset Alzheimer's first opened my eyes to the challenges of caring for an aging parent. I attended seminars, took courses and got my Nursing Assistant certification to care for her. I learned a lot of patience and tactics for working with the elder population. One of the joys and, I think, one of my strengths as a caregiver is providing companionship , stability and finding fun and meaning in unlikely places.
