About Shakilah

Hello, my name is Shakilah Ricks and I'am twenty-seven years old. I'am a very polite, friendly, outgoing, energetic and well-mannered young lady. I love meeting and being around new people although I have a passion for working with the elderly and senior citizens. I have over eight years of experience working with senior citizens and in private care-giving working inside of a Nursing Home Facility and multiple Home-care Agencies. I have First Aid, CPR and Rescuing training. Also, having a cosmetology license to provide hair, skin and nail services as needed. I have a very flexible schedule, willing to work on short of a notice, days, evenings, nights, weekends, holidays and live-in care. I am a very punctual, reliable, dependable, loving and caring person who is always willing to sacrifice and put others' needs before my own. I will go above and beyond your expectations to assure the safety and comfort of your loved ones.

1. I am currently retired and unemployed, but seeking a position which would not require me to supervise or manage other employees. 2. I feel it gives me a little flexibility in work hours and responsibilities, while providing companionship to a senior citizen in need of services. 3. I went back to school at age 55 to become an Aesthetician. Being the oldest student in the class, graduating ( in spite of an injury which caused me to lose 3 mos out of class, but coming back and graduating WITH my class) and passing my State Boards to obtain my license. 4. I have worked over the last 40+ years, in various positions, in corporate America. I would like to be of assistance to someone who needs a little attention, and care, to make a difference in their life.
