About Brittany

I became a caregiver because I am a very passionate, empathetic, kind, caring, and very uplifting person by nature. I have learned from a young age the special help my elders needed. I grew up always more then willing to help them in any way that i can. Just because I wanted to, it made me feel good to help, but the gratitude would be overwhelmingly sweet at times, which made the experience/feeling all the better. I have always been the person who brings a smile to everyone's face around me, and promote positive energy. All throughout the years people from school or the workplace, would describe me as "bubbly", "positive", "energetic", "friendly" among similar words. I have a lot of achievements to be proud of, scholastic wise, job wise, etc. but honestly, I am most proud of all the people I have helped, while keeping them smiling. My mother is also a caregiver, and I have helped her as well throughout the years, becoming more and more interested. My goal is to help as many people as possible, for them to be able to stay in the comfort of their own home as long as possible. My grandmother is one of many people out there who is willing to do anything to stay at home rather then go to a nursing home. She, like many, want desperately to stay in the comfort of their home as long as possible, and I want to be that friendly girl with the smiling face helping them do that.
