I am compassionate, positive, hardworking, reliable and honest. These are the qualities that make me an excellent Caregiver/Companion. My experience comes from assisting my mother care for my father when he was diagnosed with multiple types of cancer. My next endeavor came years later when I became my mother's sole caregiver. She suffered from dementia. After her passing, I decided to make caregiving my new career. In my first position in my new career I was a Live In 24/7 Caregiver for a lovely lady with dementia, I was with her for 2 1/2 years until her passing. Since then I have cared for several people with various needs. Please see my work history for additional clients and details. It would be a pleasure to meet with your family to discuss a customized care plan tailored to your wants and needs including compensation. I look forward to hearing from you.

I would love to be a caregiver. It makes me feel happy that I can make someone else's life just a bit easier everyday. I want them to be able to feel safe. I work in a dialysis, clinic and hospital setting. I always do my best to make them feel comfortable and with a smile. They love to just have someone to talk to and I love talking to them and hearing all their great stories. The best part of my life was taking care of my mom. She was ill pretty much since I was very young. Anything I was able to do for her I did. She was so happy, Sadly she decided to go into hospice but we did it at home, with me able to care for her, make her comfortable and safe. I know that's sad but I know in my heart it makes me feel happy to be able to be there for someone, make them happy and smile. I was born and raised in New Jersey and am the oldest of 6 kids. I love pets, I love to organize things and be clean. I am married to a wonderful man for 12 yrs and have helped raise my wonderful stepson and niece.
