About Keisha

I have been a CNA for 17 years. My parents were both professionals in the healthcare industry and I took after them. I have always loved to serve others with my service and attention. I have 3 boys ranging from the age of 17 to 4 months old and enjoy them seeing me go out to serve others everyday as it aids with character and compassion in their own lives. Becoming a caregiver I am sure was destined for my life as it is a natural part of who I am. Loosing both my parents by the age of 21 was devastating. I begun my venture with Hospice by the age of 19, truly saved my life as I suffered briefly with depression from the unanticipated death of my parents. I served my hospice patients who knew they were dying and their families and in return they gave me a sense of good direction and advise as a parent or grandparent would and this in itself saved me from myself. I have mastered the art of being an exceptional caregiver and am proud of all my hard work and dedication thus far. The art of becoming an exceptional caregiver is simple... Listen, be honest and trustworthy

I love seeing people happy, well taken care of and feeling safe and I make an effort to bring that to my clients every time I show up.
