Hello, my name is Alexandra . I have been a caregiver for over 15 years . Most of my clients have been private. I would like to say that every client along with their family members have been amazing and have welcomed me in their home as one of their own. If I had to explain what my clients and family members think about me it would be that I go above and beyond for their loved ones. They would say that I'm trust worthy, dependable, loving, compassionate and and very considerable, when they visit their loved ones. I hope this explains a little bit about myself, and I hope that you will consider me to care for your loved one..

Am a real believer in the WORD(( The Bible) that believes all human beings are one! Am a very friendly person that loves to meet different people from different cultures. I love dancing and singing a lot. Am open to corrections because I believe it helps in modifying somethings unknown to me. I have cared for seniors all my life. I love them so much. Yeah we all can ever be the same but I have been given the grace to be able to handle and work with some seniors that are a bit difficult, but at the end of it all, we all became friends and family. Am a very emotional person that feels whatever my clients are feeling also., and just love to be sure that, my clients are ok anytime any day! Caring has been my passion since I was little as my parents told me. I love my job as a caregiver simply because it's my passion to care!!! I have many seniors that are still alive but still want me to care for them just because of our relationship, but because of my schooling, and areas they are,won't just allow me to do that, but I still connect with them on phones. Taking care of seniors is a privilege for me because it makes me remember that, one day, am gonna be like them and this makes me want to care for them, better than anyone! Being a senior isn't a sin but a blessing!!! The most reason why all seniors need a good caregiver like me!
