Am Victoria by name. Am a mother of 3 wonderful children. Happily married. Am an African from Nigeria to be precise.

I am a positive person that just loves happiness, and, always wants people around me to be happy no matter what they are going through. Am not a perfect being, but I do try my possible best to make sure my clients are ok! I love everybody equally, no matter the race they are from. Am a real believer in the WORD(( The Bible) that believes all human beings are one! Am a very friendly person that loves to meet different people from different cultures. I love dancing and singing a lot. Am open to corrections because I believe it helps in modifying somethings unknown to me. I have cared for seniors all my life. I love them so much. Yeah we all can ever be the same but I have been given the grace to be able to handle and work with some seniors that are a bit difficult, but at the end of it all, we all became friends and family. Am a very emotional person that feels whatever my clients are feeling also., and just love to be sure that, my clients are ok anytime any day! Caring has been my passion since I was little as my parents told me. I love my job as a caregiver simply because it's my passion to care!!! I have many seniors that are still alive but still want me to care for them just because of our relationship, but because of my schooling, and areas they are,won't just allow me to do that, but I still connect with them on phones. Taking care of seniors is a privilege for me because it makes me remember that, one day, am gonna be like them and this makes me want to care for them, better than anyone! Being a senior isn't a sin but a blessing!!! The most reason why all seniors need a good caregiver like me!

Hello, my name is Alexandra . I have been a caregiver for over 15 years . Most of my clients have been private. I would like to say that every client along with their family members have been amazing and have welcomed me in their home as one of their own. If I had to explain what my clients and family members think about me it would be that I go above and beyond for their loved ones. They would say that I'm trust worthy, dependable, loving, compassionate and and very considerable, when they visit their loved ones. I hope this explains a little bit about myself, and I hope that you will consider me to care for your loved one..

I was a nurturer from inception. I love caring for people and helping them maintain the life they are accustomed to. I have taken care of my mom for 11 years. I am big on nutrition for health but will cook whatever is requested. I am a retired engineer so I relate well with all ages. I am good at ADLs, med reminders, hospice, companionship, gardening, cleaning and cooking.

I have always had a soft spot for seniors and really enjoy hearing their stories. I'm a very positive upbeat person that likes to stay busy and would love the chance to form a bond with someone who needs assistance or even just companionship. I believe in treating people with dignity and have good sense in knowing when to push and when to back off so a client still feels like they are making decisions.

I am a great caregiver because I provide excellent care to elderly/disabled people who can't do for themselves. I became a caregiver because I love helping people, and it feels good to help someone that's not able to help themselves. I feel that helping someone else makes my day better because I know I made a difference in someone's life whether it's helping a patient bath, eat, get dressed or even assist with walking. A personal achievement that I'm proud of is me being able to work with hospice patients. I was scared to work with hospice patients when I first started as a certified nurses aide, but I work with them everyday now and I love it!!! I'm going tell you a little about me I'm a dedicated hard worker, caring, respectful, loyal and honest person. I'm also a great person to get along with and I can work and a lot of different settings such as nursing homes, home care etc.

Its in my heart to caregiver

It might sound cliche, but I feel as though God put me on this Earth to help others. I originally wanted to be a psychologist, but I knew I would worry about my patients too much. My next best option? Nursing. Becoming a CNA is one of the first steps I'm taking towards becoming a nurse. I'm very enthusiastic about my future career, and I'm currently attending Waubonsee Community College in Sugar Grove, Illinois. I'm planning to further my education to a Master's- possibly a doctorate's degree. I hope to one day become part of the Mercy Ships or Doctors Without Borders. The goal may be a stretch, but I am willing to work hard to get there.

Alittle about me: I love people! Currently, I work and live with teens in a home setting. Most of my work history is with elderly or with adults with disabilities. My greatest quality that helps me be an amazing caregiver is my patience and my love for elderly people. God has gifted me with a talent of taking care of those in need. My main reason to become a Social Work was to help people in need. My next chapter in my life is to get my Masters in Social Work with specializing in geriatric's and childcare. Both these areas of study are my passion,and love which I am equally invested. My most favorite memory of caregiving was taking care of my own mom while she walked through cancer and treatment until she passed away. That experience has taught me their are so many stories just like my mom's but walk through it alone. I am very confident that you will be blessed to choose me to take care of your young or elderly. I am here so someone like my mom, doesn't have to walk alone.
