About Dawn

I became a caregiver when my grandmother that I adored was diagnosed with dementia. I continued to take on more and more responsibilities as her condition progressively got worse. After she passed I know that I was blessed with the passion to be a caregiver. I feel that if I can put a smile on their face, or give them a hug to let them know that they are safe and loved I have done my job. My personal achievement is that I have raised 3 well rounded children that have all accomplished the goals they have set for themselves. I am a very positive, warm loving, compassionate person always looking to help others. Your loved one would be taken care of the same way I took care of my own Grandmother.

    Since I was young I always loved taking care of others. I became a caregiver simply because I love to care for people. I especially love the elderly. Being a caregiver makes me feel good about myself, and just knowing I can help someone who needs it makes me proud. I like to make people feel accepted and cared for. A personal achievement I am proud of myself for accomplishing would be going to school to become a Certified Medical Assistant, and dedicating my time to my grandmother the last three months of her life. My passion is the elderly because I feel like I can learn and grow so much from their knowledge and experiences. I am very honest, caring, loving, and trustworthy.
