Hi there! I'm a fun and caring caregiver. I've been providing care for clients for over 10 years, whether it's cleaning, preparing a meal, or providing full care. I am patiencent and understanding and most of all I care about your loved one. I became a PCA long ago because I wanted to leave an impact on my clients. My clients no longer feel lonely, they feel important and that they still are loved. They feel confident knowing I'm here to help genuinely.

I became a caregiver 22 years ago when (at that time) my mothers employer was looking for a 'fill-in' person. I gave it a try and absolutely fell in love with what I did! I love being a caregiver because I find great joy in helping others!! I have worked with a lot of Seniors and I have helped them to be able to stay in their homes! I have a passion for helping others! I am a very energetic, trustworthy, reliable and caring individual!! I am able to provide great references upon request!!

As a highly competent caregiver companion, I bring a service- focused and hardworking attitude to this role. I maintain an efficient and organized work mentality as I assist in the care of several geriatric and chronically ill patients. I have an instinct for problem solving and work well independently and with little oversight. I am compassionate, outgoing, resourceful, and believe that trust and honesty are key when in a caregivers role. I was attracted to care giving due to my need of wanting to help people. What I enjoy the most is building a bond and being apart of the recovery process. My biggest achievement in care giving was being able to help my mom over a period of two years recover from her Ru in y Gastric bypass surgery. Prior to her surgery she had diabetes and kidney disease for 3 years and didn't think she would make it to the age of 40. After her surgery I was apart of the recovery process and seeing her healthy and free of diabetes and kidney disease has been the best experience and biggest accomplishment in my life. Therefore I want to continue and help others because its what I truly love to do.

I have compassion, love, patience for what I do as a Certified Nurse Assistant and as a Hospice Aide. I took care of my mom and sis which made me want to be a nurse assistant for life!!

Hello, My name is Danielle. I've been a caregiver for 11 years and I absolutely love it. I got into the healthcare field due to my father having early onset Alzheimer's. I love the healthcare field and it has been my passion ever since. It's a career I am very proud of and take pride in.

I have 9-10 years of caregiver experience. 4 of those years are in home car, and 5/6 of those years are in a nursing home setting.

I have good personality and interpersonal traits, my expertise range from the basis of love care and support which i have done for many years in Cape Town South Africa. I was mainly attracted to become a care giver when i saw the need from seniors in South Africa who lived on their own and have to go on their own to the super market to buy food in dangerous areas where they can be mugged and have their money taken from them. I enjoy socializing with the seniors, listening to their past experiences and also learning from their sickness or illness be it diabetics or any other disease, i love learning more on how best they love to be treated. I cared for my late mother in-law who had diabetics and i enjoyed every minute of helping her to manage her sugar levels and monitoring and record keeping of all the readings. I am proud of the fact that i had this quality time to be a care giver in my home to my mother as well as to my mother in-law. I have also cared for Senator Jack Edward Jones in Harare Zimbabwe at the age of 18, i had the love to care for seniors. He had been mugged and tripped on his hip bone and underwent surgery, upon discharge from the hospital, i personally managed the care at home until he could get out of bed. I did bed baths and i loved it because i knew he cant do it for himself, then who else if i was present in the home, it had to be me.

I have been a caregiver since I was 15 years old. I took care of my grandmother as she went through radiation and chemotherapy for liver and colon cancer. I took care of the housework and was responsible for cleaning her colostomy 3 times a day. I cared for her husband who also had dementia and alzheimers. As I grew up, i then cared for my mother who had non-hodgkin's b-cell lymphoma of the brain which affected her mental abilities. I cared for my aunt who developed lung cancer and had to undergo treatment as well. I cared for mybuncle who suffered PTSD, emphysema, copd, and diabetes. I have a step daughter with mental disabilities as well as neurological issues and epilepsy. I have been a caregiver most of my life and has been something I have felt comfortable with no matter how hard times have seemed. I am now 38 years old and have been doing this over half my life. Helping others is something that has given me fulfillment in my life.
