About Nelvia

I am by nature a giving person with a passion for the elderly. My experience spans 12 years via a state institution working with the mentally challenged; and private companies servicing seniors. I prefer seniors. My services includes light housekeeping, bathing, dressing, light cooking, feeding and med reminding. Will work with dogs (no problem) but allergic to cats and cannot work for prolonged periods of time without taking meds; occasional over nights are desirable.

15 years ago I was in desperate need of a caregiver for my mother. It was very difficult to find an honest, caring, trustworthy person to care for her. I went through several different caregivers, including a family friend that didn't work out for the job. I ended up quitting my job and caring for her till she died 9 years later. At this point in my life I want to be able to help someone that needs special care because I know the negative impact it can take on the entire family when the care of a loved one is not being met. I think the sick and elderly are at our mercy to care for them.

Hi, I'm a very trustworthy, loving, dependable person! I have 10 years of caregiving experience. I have been doing all this caregiving through volunteering at my church. I decided I loved taking care of people so much I wanted go to work at what I love doing! I have done most everything as a caregiver, i.e., light house work, meal preparation, grocery shopping, rides to dr. Appointments, run errands, companionship, and love the job!!! I treat my care partners like one of my family members and would love to take care of your family member!
