My grandparents, as well as my great-grandparents, made a very strong impression on me. I enjoyed spending time with all of them in the summer. Goodness, kindness, and unconditional love from my sweet relatives taught me to be loving, caring, and considerate of my elders. After doing volunteer work at nursing homes, I really felt this was my special 'calling'. Now, I enjoy each and every day, learning from the elderly people that are in my care. I have been driving to Atlanta and Marietta for the past 4 years, as well as Woodstock and Canton. Distance is not an issue for me. Hope to hear from you soon!!

Being a caregiver for the past 8 years has helped me in so many ways. I decided to get into nursing when my mother became sick and couldn't do much for herself and I helped day in and day out. I saw how much of a positive impact it had on her and it made me feel great. I have worked in Hospitals, Nursing Home and Skilled Facilities, Private Duty, cases with Shepard center, brain and spinal injury patients. I love what I do in helping each client I've ever worked with whether it be from recovery start and finish or just companionship and daily living activities. Taking care of someone that needs my help and undivided attention gives me joy and it lets me know how truly appreciated I am to help someone who can't do for themself.

Thank you for visiting my profile! My name is Yvonne Thompson, and I am a loving caregiver with over 15 years of experience. I have worked with a diverse group of people over the years, and all my experiences have lead me to become a more compassionate caregiver and insightful human being. I first started caregiving because of my interest in health and holistic wellness. I knew as a caregiver my ability to devote true attention and positive energy to my clients would be a special part of their healing process. I love to brighten the days for those who can't always do for themselves. I naturally bring positive energy and happiness everywhere I go and this always inspires my clients.
My ultimate achievement as a caregiver, was being able to care for my beloved mother for several years, before she made her final transition from this world. In those years my heart expanded and I knew that being a caregiver was a part of my purpose. I enjoy meeting new people and understanding their story. Family is very important to me and so my clients often become my extended family.
I believe that kindness, gentleness and open hearted understanding are the key components of my gift as a caregiver. I understand the vulnerability in opening your home and extending sacred responsibilities of a love one to a stranger. I take my purpose as a caregiver seriously and truly love helping and connecting with people.
Ever since i was young i knew i wanted a career in a field where i am able to help people and nursing is it! I love the ability to connect with each and every individual i come across on so many different levels . I have a firm understanding that caring for someone is a unique and individually based process and i take pride in doing so while being patient and understanding. I love taking the time to learn each and everyone of my clients i come across so i can provide the best care possible for them.
Am a great caregiver because I enjoy caring for those who can no longer care for themselves, I am very compassionate and kind hearted. Before I become a professional caregiver, I take care of my grandfather in the Caribben, Then coming to live in the USA I started a position with a wonderful family in harts dale ny, taking care of the mother and father for almost 9 years. Sadly they passed away 2011 and 2012, they were wonderful people. I really understand what it takes to take care of the elderly. I am very loving, patient and kind, I treat people the way I would like to be treated, I also like to sing for them .
Hello my name is Manica Leon and I have been a Certified Nursing Assistant for 15+years. I love and enjoy taking care of people. The people I care for often times become more than just a patient, they become famliy. I also took care of my paralyzed mother for three years after an awful stroke. Being a Certified Nursing assistant is a rewarding and humbling field for me. I always try to encourage my patients to never give up and know that things could be way worst. I give them a positive outlook on the life they currently have and that they are loved. If your looking for someone who is compassionate, loving, understanding and is passionate about what they do please give me a call you will not regret it.
The elderly has a wealth of knowledge that they love to share about life and their experiences. I enjoy their appreciation for you being their caregiver and they seem so grateful. I treat them the same way I would like to be treated and the way I would like my mother to be treated if she needed care.
Empathy and compassion. Working with people in a home care setting, it is essential that a caregiver feel the desire to want to help. By showing both empathy and compassion caregivers will let the person they are caring for know that they care about the person and want to do what they can to help them.
I have been a certified nursing assistant since 1997. I worked in the hospital for 17 years. 5 years in nursing rehabilitate center. Now I'm working as a private caregiver. I'm very friendly, easy to work with, compassionate, flexible and comprehensive.
As a college graduate, I would like to express my interest in becoming your caregiver. I have earned my bachelor's degree, which has given me a very broad knowledge base and leadership ability. I'm enthusiastic upon the idea of contributing to your love one's health and wellness through the efficient use of my previous skills and experience. I am a very compassionate, nurturing, reliable, hardworking, detail oriented individual. With over 10 years of experience in customer service, I am confident that I can provide great quality care for your loved one. I've had a diverse group of patients with different backgrounds from around the world and ages ranging from newborns to senior citizens. I have worked in a variety of healthcare environments, including rehab centers, hospitals, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes. I have a true passion for helping people in need and love being a vital part of their growth, development, independence, and overall progression. I look forward to building relationships and working with you and your family.
I've been a CNA for 12 years. I have experience in Nursing home/rehab , hospital setting and also home health care. What bought me into this field is the compassion I have for helping others and making a difference in their life. I particularly enjoy home health care because the one on one time with the client builds a bond and a connection with the client as well as the family.
