1) I love helping others and my grand mother told me I would make a great caregiver. I have always been a caregiver but I applied for a job one day and I have doing it every since. Also I took care of grandmother until she was 91. 2) I love caring for people and I feel like everyone needs help some times. We owe our elderly so much and this just my way of giving back. 3) I raised 4 children (3 girls and 1 boy) and nobody is in jail. And I am attending college for myself now. 4} I will one day have my owe business and a Bachlor's degree in science

Denise B.

$16.00/hour · Plano, TX

My parents were both very involved with volunteering. I learned early on the benefits and rewards of being caring, kind and helping others. My mom lived in her own home until she recently passed away at 98. We had various caregivers for her over the years, and while some were wonderful, there were many more that were not. I treat people the way I would treat my own mother...with respect and dignity. I try to find what brings joy to whomever I'm caring for. Do they like to sing or be sung to, play cards, board games, go for a walk? I can help clean, make meals, get groceries, transport to and from Dr visits and hair appointments or just give a full time caregiver a break. I helped my mom with bathing, grooming and dressing and am willing to learn how you do things. I have a heart of gold when it comes to people who need a little extra help, especially the elderly. I'm reliable, patient, trustworthy and will always show up with a smile. I hope to hear from you....Denise Will also do evening checks after 5:30 p.m. I can make sure your loved one has eaten dinner or I can make them dinner, taken medications, help them get ready for bed, take dog out, make sure doors are secured or just visit. Will stay a min of 3 hours @ $22 an hour. Will help with transportation to and from the hospital and after care from surgery/plastic surgery. I will gladly give you references upon request. P.S. - I should also mention that I'm allergic to cats....sorry!
