About Sharon

Hi, My name is Sharon Dennis, and I'm formally from the lovely island of Barbados. What makes me an outstanding Care giver is that it has always been my nature to give back to older ones, not only in a secular setting, but outside my daily working schedule as well . I'm constantly drawn to Mature ones who can no longer help themselves, to the degree they once used to, and so I feel the need to be that special "tool " to help them. I became a care-giver to help restore the dignity that is lost, to such valuable ones in "MY" society. I see no problem giving of my time, strength, ability, to those who no longer posses such. What I treasure most about being a care-giver, is getting to know the client personally ,their childhood, upbringing, memories and talents. The Personal achievement I'm proud of ( which I'm sure any great Aide can attest to ) is transforming the most "difficult" temperamental Client , into a gem and a great friend .

    Years ago I all ways went out of my way to help people, and as I got older my grandmother would have me on different errands to help her friends. Enjoyed helping them, and as they aged and was not able to drive and go to doctors appointments on there own I would take them. Never thought any thing of it. My aunt and uncle where very good to me and when there health was failing, I made sure they had there medical appointments made there shopping done and when my uncle passed, I took care of my auntie until she left this world. Became a caregiver because of love helping people. Being a Caregiver is very rewarding. Knowing that i make a difference in peoples life makes me smile. A personal achievement that I am proud of is continuing my education.
