About Lisa

I think its really important for a caregiver to be able to imagine themselves in their clients position. I'm extremely empathetic, having worked with people who were bed-bound and forced to stare at the same four walls, day after day. It is very important to display patience, understanding, and a light-hearted approach, as your client is most likely experiencing some level of (often undiagnosed) depression due to their circumstances. I treat my clients with the kind of dignity and respect that I hope I will (one day) receive from caregivers, and I do my very best to make them feel sincerely cared for. I make every attempt to anticipate my clients needs and I never hesitate to take extra steps to ensure my clients comfort and happiness. My clients have best describe me as kind, caring, honest, personable, and very organized. I love all animals, large and small! When I'm not working as a caregiver, You might find me teaching a painting class, professionally illustrating (or writing) a children's book, designing crafts, creating fine art or playing with my Havanese, "Eloise"!

I always like taking care of other people. I like helping them do thing they use to do by themselves but now become difficult to do along, cleaning, groceries shopping, doctor appointments, etc. Also I like hearing the stories of their lives and giving them comfort. I take care for everything and anything they need. I have been there unconditionally with every person I had work with and they have become like family. I'm a person who is devoted to her job. I raise 2 children, a girl and a boy, and now I live along . For almost 6 years I was the main caregiver to 89 year old lady with osteoarthritis. For four years I took care for a lady with Alzheimer's. The last 4 years I help a couple with daily routine, light housekeeping, cooking, driving. I have been caring for older people for 20 years and still enjoying doing so. I'm bilingual English and Spanish. Reference and background check at interview.

I am a people person who finds it rewarding and challenging to give optima care. When a person is limited in caring for one self, that's were I come in and help them over coming their disabilities and enhance their self-worth.. We never know when the end is coming, so I make everyday the best day possible. I am very compassionate trustworthy with peoples privacy issues. I am a team player who goes above and beyond. Safety and security are my first and for most priority.
