Personality traits: I try to put myself in the other person's shoes. I am a person of the highest integrity and dress in a professional manner. I know how to balance empathy and caring in such a way that as I care for the body, the mind and soul feels cared for as well giving a sense of comfort in knowing everything's going to be alright and they feel safe and secure. The thing that attracted me to being a care giver is, I like to "Help" people. I'm interested in the wisdom an elderly person has. I enjoy being a caregiver because helping others puts a smile on their face knowing they are safe and secure in my care at maybe their most vulnerable state. One personal achievement I am proud of is being excepted into the 2019 Strathmore's Worldwide Who's Who in my occupation as a Health Care provider. I have 15 years prior experience as a NA11. I've worked in agencies with Home Health and Hospice and in a skilled nursing facility. I have experience with every aspect that it takes to care for your loved one with over 20yrs. In all. The one thing that makes me a great care giver is I listen to their needs not my agenda and I love what I do.

I believe I would be a great caregiver your family. I am passionate about building strong relationships with people, caring for them, and helping them set personal goals and having their needs met. For the last several years I have worked as an educator with Boston’s urban youth and families. Each year I developed a classroom management system that allowed students to develop the social and academic skills they needed to succeed in the classroom and in the world. I was also a Life Skills Coach to an Autistic young male adult. I assisted him with the skills necessary to be a positive part of his community in Allston, MA. I prepared him with the skills needed to live self-sufficiently by developing his social skills in the work environment using various behavioral plans with incentives. I feel that I am qualified for this position because of the experiences I have had in the Boston public school system, as well as my attention to detail, my focus and commitment, and my ability to work in a team environment. I have an ability to connect with adults and communicate openly with family members. My experience and skillset make me an excellent fit for a position.

I've had a passion for personal care since I was 15 years old. I lived in Bolivia and volunteered at a convent where the nuns picked up abandoned and homeless elderly and took them to a beautiful nursing home to care for them. There a nurse who knew I loved medicine, took me under her wings and trained me as a CNA. I became a PA in the 1990, but I got a job as a care giver during the time I was home schooling my kids to works night on the side besides my PA work. I love the elderly. I also was blessed to be able to care for my mother who had terminal cancer and finally passed after 3 years. Last year I had the opportunity to work in my field in a Nursing Home and loved every minute of it. I am currently working slowly on becoming a Registered Aromatherapist taking a class a year. I am certified to do Aromatherapy light massage.
