About Sanita

Hi, My name is Sanita Williams and I became a caregiver because caring for people is what I wanted to do. At first no, I didn't care to do this kind of work but God directed me in this field in year 2000. I began working in this field in the year of 2000 and realized I enjoyed it. It was a challenge for me at first, but I learned everything I needed to learn; and there was a lot to learn. I even decided to go to school to be a nurse; financial problems, so I couldn't finish. What I enjoy about being a caregiver is making people feel better and making them smile. I enjoy comforting others and making them happy. I want patients to know that I am here for them. My personal achievement is making it this far and knowing the things that I've learned about caring for others. I've achieved excellent experience and knowledge for caring for people. I've learned from nursing, other nursing assistants, doctors, even patient's family members. I am a mom of 2 boys, ages 24 and 18. I am from Mississippi and I've lived in the Dallas area since 1995. I can be a quiet person until I get to know someone, I enjoy cooking, reading and watching tv shows that makes me laugh. Although I am no longer in school, still, I read over different material from my school books, its like a continual education for me. Most of all, which should have been come first, I enjoy reading the bible and studying the information. I try to focus on what is important in life.

    I'm a great caregiver because I not just in it for a pay check. I love doing what I do. I so love making people laugh and giving it my all. Knowing that I can help make someone day better, that's what I strive for. Leaving my home town and finding my own way. I'm a mother of four, I love cooking and enjoying life.

    I became a caregiver because I've always had a connection when it came to working with the elderly. The thing I like the most about being a caregiver is being around the elderly. It makes me feel good to know that I can make a difference when it comes to having them remain in their home and not need to go to a facility. A achievement that I'm proud of is when I'm working with someone and they feel a bond with me and want to know when they'll see me again. I'm a good person to get along with and I go beyond to make sure that I have clients that are happy and comfortable.
