About Shyrell

What makes me a great caregiver is my compassion. I treat my clients how I would treat my loved one. I have patience, maturity, respect, honesty, good listening skills, and reliability. I became a caregiver 6 years ago after my grandmother got really ill and needed a caregiver, I didn't like the way she treated my grandmother so I decided to take on the job as her caregiver until she got better and loved it so much that I decided to do the Hha training and become a certified Hha. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is knowing that I'm helping someone who isn't capable of doing it on their own and still giving them their independence and dignity. Putting smiles on my clients faces and giving them relief of worry and fear is what I enjoy doing. A personal achievement I am proud of is the experience, maturity and knowledge I've gained from working with elderly people.

$25.00/hour · Scarsdale, NY
I am professional, energetic and enjoy working with people of all ages and backgrounds. I started my career in health as a Registered Nurse in Australia. I have also worked in many areas of health and education. I have worked as a RN in acute and aged care settings. I also cared for my father in my home for over 5 years when he suffered dementia so I understand the challenges for families when providing care for their loved ones. I worked with special needs children in a residential home for 5 years and early childhood education for 12 years. I am well traveled having lived and worked in many countries in Asia and Africa. I am respectful of others choices and cultures. I am a calm person who focuses on solutions as opposed to dramas. I have a problem solving approach to challenges. I am completely reliable in all matters from time management to spoken word and money. When caring for clients, I aim to give them the same level of care and respect I would like for my family members. I am a good communicator but I am also aware of the importance of confidentiality. I have recently moved to Scarsdale as my husband has been posted here with the UN. I have my own car and can be flexible with work hours.
