About Alanna

I'm a bit more of a quiet person. I'm a good listener. I am very punctual and hardworking at my jobs. My mother is a Type I diabetic and I have spent several months taking care of her. And I have helped out my father when he has had two bouts of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. I have a certain amount of understanding when it comes to taking care of people that need a little bit of help with getting around day-to-day. I have been doing this type of work for over a year now. I help people with getting dressed, bathing, toileting, and getting ready for bed. I have also done light housework/cleaning, laundry, preparing meals, etc. Being a caregiver is very rewarding when the people that I work with feel appreciated, listened to and taken care of.
