About Mariehelene

i WOULD NOT SAY THAT I HAD PLANED TO BECOME A CAREGIVER , I HAVE A LITTLE STORY BEHIND ALL OF THIS , I'M COMING FROM A COUNTRY Of DESPOTISM AND WAR, AS I EXPERIENCED A LOT OF TROUBLE AND PEOPLE IN NEED IN MY COUNTRY I FELT THAT AS A YOUTH AND STRONG PERSON I NEED TO HELP PEOPLE IN NEED, THAT IS WHEN I STARTED AS A VOLUNTEER IN THE RED CROSS OF MY COUNTRY.The experience and the benefit i gain from helped people help me determinate what i have to do for the rest of life. Being a caregiver is the most rewarding thing i have known as far as taking care of parent a friend or a child , the gift that a human being can only expected his being remember as a hero and by care giving i really feel like someone special and because this is about giving all of you without expecting anything that is enough for me. I am proud of myself because once in my life i can said that i made some life easier and joyful on the few day he has on this earth. I AM A VERY NICE A ND EASY GOING PERSON , i don't like issues and i don't bring them either , i love serving and make people happy.

    Being patient,loving, caring, compassionate, and highly experienced make me a good caregiver. This is what I have been doing before I came to this country. Out of 6 siblings, I was the only one taking care of my Mom with the assistance of my daughter who is now a medical doctor and now in the university pursuing her masters degree in public health here in the U.S. I feel so much comfortable taking of people either young or old. It is my joy to contribute positively to general care of elderly people. I personally relate very well with my client and their families, that most of them treat me like members of their families. I still have contact with most of the families I have worked for. They sometimes take me out for my birthdays celebrations , some calls on my birthdays, some sends messages on my birthdays. I think this a great achievement, because if I did not do good jobs for them, they will not remember me to give me such wonderful honors.
