About Ericka

I will start of by saying I'm a married mother of three beautiful children. I am a very caring compassionate, hardworking, loving individual. I've always loved working with people. From making them look good, feel good or just making them feel better about themselves. I have been in this field working with the disable and elderly for over 10 to 15 yrs. One of the main reasons I choose in this feild is my compassion for the elderly. Just knowing one day I too may need the same assistance. And hopefully I receive the same loving care I give to my clients.

    One of the reasons that makes me who I am as a caregiver is the compassion that I have in my heart for my clients and their families. I am a person of integrity, honesty, dependability and concern. It's about giving of myself to my clients and having a sense of the quality of life concerning the lifestyle they have. When I come into their presence a smile comes on their face. I will show the passion, give the encouragement, and hope they will have the confidence that I will know exactly what to do concerning their plan of care. I became a caregiver because of my mother's influence. Listening to her talk about her clients was interesting and heart warming and sometimes I felt sad and wanted to help, so I did! The rewards of being a caregiver is caring for those who cannot care for themselves or just needing a little help. Always understanding what care consists of at all times regardless of the situations and circumstances whether it's to assist or just HELP. I love what I do as a caregiver because I have a compassionate heart.
