About Sharon

1. I love providing home caregiving services to those that would otherwise not be able to do so. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel I have done my job right. I have always enjoyed helping people so I know I am doing the right thing. 2. Meeting new people and providing caregiving services that they can no longer do for themselves. 3. One of the personal achievement I'm proud of being able to take care of my family and receiving my Bachelors degree while working two jobs and interning. 4. I will give 100% and do the best job I can, with no exceptions or excuses. I also try to bring a sense of humor to my work. If I can add a smile or laugh to a client’s day, that means a lot to me. It is important to laugh. I have over twenty years of Human Resources experience as well as over twenty years working in the Human Services field with various populations.

    I am a very reliable and friendly caregiver, I love to care for people young,old,disability, handicapped. It's doesn't become just a Job for me, but to see a smile on person face says it all for me. I enjoy caring for the elderly or people's needs because one day I might be in their shoe so I treat everyone how I would want to be treated, which is with respect, being honest, caring , trusting me to care for them. From my experience I've heard a lot of people tell me that I'm very patient and loving. I always look forward to seeing every client home I go to and they look forward to seeing me and that warm friendly smile I gave them

    Hello, My name is Alicia and I have been a caregiver for about 6 year. The thing that I most enjoy about being a caregiver is the opportunity to give someone the care and support that they need throughout the day for them to live a happier life. The thing I most part of is my two kids. They are my everything, and they mean the world to me. My personality trait is very caring, loving and just want to be helpful in any way I can for someone. You can say I'm a giver.
