About Margaret

I became a caregiver because I felt a calling by God to enter the profession. I have a background caring for children as nanny and preschool teacher. I knew my skills and expertise in this area would aid me in providing experienced and compassionate care for seniors. While working with children I developed patience, flexibility, adaptability and better communication skills. I am punctual, dependable, trustworthy and serious about safety standards. I enjoy getting to know my clients' unique personalities, sharing common interests with them, and helping them participate in activities of daily living successfully. I delight in being a companion to senior citizens, and hearing their stories. I feel satisfaction when I know that caring for my client enables her to spend her "golden years" in the comfort of her own home. Note: I am unavailable evenings and weekends.

I started doing caregiving in 2006 working for IHSS. I stayed with them until 2011. I loved the one on one with the client's. I have worked in facilities but didn't like that people weren't always getting the best care from all of the caregivers. I been doing private homes for a lot of years since. I love what I do and I am very grateful to do it. I have a lot of patience and compassion for my clients and there families. I try to give them the best care that they deserve. I do currently work for Cross Country Workforce doing Caregiving. I enjoy my job and I love working with families . I love being able to help someone that's in need of care. It makes my heart smile.
