About Heather

I have often asked what makes me a good caregiver and my response is that I treat my clients with respect, kindness and compassion. That providing care based on my clients needs no matter their age or gender is key to providing the quality care that my clients deserve. I have been surrounded by family in the medical field especially my mom who is the most compassionate registered nurse I have ever had in my life she is my inspiration. I enjoy providing care to my clients because it allows me to provide support to my clients and their families. If I had to say what is my achievement is I would say it is being a single mom to a special needs child while still following my goals to become a CNA and continue my education to eventually become a Registered Nurse like my mom. It's because of nurses like my mom that I put my self in others "shoes" How would I want someone to treat my child or my parents? I'd want someone who loves their job and will focus on quality compassionate care for my family. For the last 4 years I have worked with special needs children and a year of experience with senior care. Available in COS & Denver Areas / passed CO state background check / own vehicle with full coverage insurance.

I have over 5 years caregiver experience. I love helping others who are unable to do thing's on their own. I continued to do caregiving because of my grandfather o took care of for 3 year's back in 2010. Once he passed away i just felt i could do more by helping others that need help or just need someone to talk to. I am proud that i have made a difference in other people's lives.

I am Patient, very compassionate, detail oriented, and loving. My granny also known as my best friend had became very ill around 2013/2014 and my mother worked a full time job, she didn't have anyone to help her take care of my granny so I told my mother that I would provide for her. I took care of her day in and day out, I enjoyed bonding with her and getting to know and understand her interest. It allowed me to care for someone else aside from myself and build a remarkable bond. That experience encouraged my choice in major for college. I chose to go to school for nursing minoring in CNA and for Pre-Med to be a cardiothoracic surgeon. It is my passion to help others regardless of their circumstances.
