Lyneda B.

I have always been drawn to caring for people, animals, and the natural world. While earning my degree in nutrition, I volunteered in retirement communities, soup kitchens, and with Meals on Wheels. Those experiences showed me how meaningful it can be to offer someone not only practical help, but warmth, attention, and companionship. Over the past several years, I have cared for older adults living with dementia, recovering from strokes, and managing chronic health conditions. I am patient and observant, and I understand that everyone has their own rhythms, preferences, and ways of communicating. Having lived and traveled abroad, I am comfortable connecting with people whose lives may look very different from mine. My background in nutrition helps me understand health and daily routines, while my training in yoga therapy taught me the value of calm, movement, and simply slowing down. What I enjoy most is discovering who someone is beyond the care they need. I love hearing people's stories and finding small ways to make the day feel lighter, whether we are taking a walk, cooking, listening to music, visiting a museum, or simply having an interesting conversation. My work as an artist helps me bring curiosity and imagination into caregiving, especially when a client is feeling isolated or discouraged. I have degrees in nutrition and fine art, but some of my most meaningful experiences have been much quieter: earning a family's trust, helping someone feel comfortable in their own home, or seeing a client become more engaged with life again. Outside of work, I enjoy art, poetry, reading, hiking, travel, and nature.

I'm very compassionate and caring and a very good listener I enjoy being a caregiver to support and help another very knowledgeable 12 years of Skilled Nursing Facility Training ,CPR Certified , Hospice and Home Health looking for a position were I can utilize my training and talent considerate of others and very patience
