About Bethany

After years of office work, followed by many more years of nannying for two wonderful boys, I decided to finally follow my passion for caring for people and go back to school to become a CNA. I finished school (with a 4.0 gpa) in May of 2016, and have been caring for a family member, while working as a part time nanny since. I did my clinicals at a nursing home, and decided that home caregiving would be a better fit for me, because of the ability to give that special one on one care that I know I would want for my loved ones.

One of the reasons that makes me who I am as a caregiver is the compassion that I have in my heart for my clients and their families. I am a person of integrity, honesty, dependability and concern. It's about giving of myself to my clients and having a sense of the quality of life concerning the lifestyle they have. When I come into their presence a smile comes on their face. I will show the passion, give the encouragement, and hope they will have the confidence that I will know exactly what to do concerning their plan of care. I became a caregiver because of my mother's influence. Listening to her talk about her clients was interesting and heart warming and sometimes I felt sad and wanted to help, so I did! The rewards of being a caregiver is caring for those who cannot care for themselves or just needing a little help. Always understanding what care consists of at all times regardless of the situations and circumstances whether it's to assist or just HELP. I love what I do as a caregiver because I have a compassionate heart.
