About Chelynn

I'm a Pittsburgh native and I moved to Atlanta a few years ago. I love the city and don't plan on leaving. I'm a biology major and I intend on continuing on to PA school. I have a passion for medicine and helping others, I've always had a job working with the elderly since I got my first job at the age of 16. The work is so rewarding and I knew from a young age this is what I wanted to do and I would do anything to get my foot in the door. Before college, I obtained my CNA license and became a caregiver/home health aide. I have cared for clients with a plethora of different needs and requirements. I come highly recommended and would even give some families I've worked with as a reference or companies I've worked for. I'm a hard working, punctual and loving employee. I understand that most families bring me on board during their most difficult and challenging times. I understand and accept my role and try my best to do all I can to put clients and families at ease and make this transition into a new phase of life as easier and seamless as possible. I have a clean driving record. Up to date TB test, child abuse clearances and FBI criminal checks and fingerprinting and will release the information upon request.
