About Valery

For starters, I have a very likeable personality. Always ready and willing to listen to the clients as they reminisce about their past lives. I am always willing to answer any questions that might help them feel more comfortable having me in their personal spaces. I am very passionate about my job especially since I'm going to be nurse. Over the years, I've learned that being empathetic is one of the great secrets to being a great caregiver, so I strive to be empathetic with every single client. I always knew I wanted to be a nurse because I truly believe nurses make a huge impact in people's lives. What better way to get into that than being a caregiver and seeing frist hand what I would be in for in the long haul. I love being able to put a smile on someone's face just by doing things as little as making up the bed, doing the dishes or just making some good morning coffee. I am proud that I will be finishing up my nursing program soon and hopefully I can provide care for some of my current clients as a nurse. I am the caregiver you've been looking for.
