About Tammy

I have always had a love for people and helping others. What better way to serve than taking care of someone in their weakest hour? You find instant gratification when you are able to comfort someone or tend to their needs. You are also able to connect with others on a deeper level. I am very proud of my success in healthcare. I was awarded "Ancillary Employee of the Year" by the doctors of the Emory graduating class of 2012. I would, some day. love to own and opperate a bed and breakfast somewhere quiet close to the lake.

    I believe in delivering quality of life for seniors and clients of any age! Showing compassion through sincere listening and being present for the clients I care for is a top priority. Through home visits with various agencies, live-in care, and working with an Assisted Living Center my combined services to the elderly have helped me thrive in the industry of caring. In the realm of younger folks, I drove a school bus for years and taught home schooled children including my own. I taught a class on self-empowerment based on the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series too. The classes I taught were an eye-opener and perhaps opened the door to a new way of viewing life. The life experiences I've had with Seniors who have become family to me and ultimately my friends has given me much more than I could have possibly conceived of giving to them! I found that with kids, being present and seeing the beautiful gifts they have inside always brought those gifts out with the acknowledgement. The services I've provided are most assuredly a soul's calling! Senior care and working with younger folks has been a perfect fit with my desire to make a difference with others, and the kind of career I totally enjoy! I have a knack for understanding human nature and the needs of the heart and naturally, I learned this through my own life experiences. We all are truly one when it comes to matters of the heart and what this life means! Applying the knowledge of our oneness is what the care of others is all about. I'm seeing my own reflection in the hearts of those that I serve in this type of work. From that seeing, I give the best of who I am to others! Importantlly too is the fact that I am CPR and First Aid Certified and have over 20 years experience caring for Seniors.

    Passion for what you do in life is important. Passion and fulfillment is what was discovered when I became a Certified Nursing Assistant working with the seniors in my community. The bonds and memories made are invaluable and to be treasured to the end of my life. My past work fields include; Stay at Home Mom of two sons, Ga. Realtor, Travel & Tourism as well as the Health & Wellness Industry. After having worked 3 years as a CNA/HHA in the Home Healthcare Industry for a large medicare funded company, large amounts of varied experiences were gained. Life put a fork in the road and I chose to direct my life to Lawrenceville, Ga. in order to care for my own mother suffering from dementia and cancer. Now I am seeking to return back to the Woodstock, Canton area which is closer to my own children and relatives, and find a good fit with full time care-giving. Have always been proud of the work I deliver. Character traits I embrace are; Honesty, Compassion, Reliable, Fair, Flexible, Open-Minded, Humorous, Punctual, Dependable, Positive Energy, Trustworthy, Creative, Outgoing, Sincere, Spiritual, Genuine, Kind and Love to Laugh. Thank you for your consideration. Lets Talk!
