I am originaly from jamaica WI .I am english speaking.I have over 20yrs of experience taking care of our elderly.I love my famliy friends and people in general. I have a big heart and a great personality. i am very respectful compassionate and reliable. My caring for the eldrly started when i was very young. My nana was bedridden and i would help my mom to change and dress her. From then on i knew that this is what i want to do caring for our seniors. I enjoy them. what I like about being a caregiver is I try to make a difference in someone life to put a smile on their face. I find it to be very rewarding.
