Hello, My name is Shakeya. I have been a caregiver for 14 years. I became a caregiver because I believe in helping and giving back to others that are in need of help. I believe that when caring for a person to be empathetic and very patient concerning their needs. The most that I enjoy about being a caregiver is making all my clients feel comfortable and putting smiles on their faces. Companionship is a very good method to brighten up an individual's day. What attracts me about being a caregiver is the bond that I form with all of my clients. It can be hard for some, so what warms my heart is that I made a difference in how they feel. We all need some form of love and a listening ear. I love providing the best care I can.
