About Faith

I am a mature caregiver that genuinely enjoys elderly clients and am fascinated by their life stories. I also have worked with children & special needs children. I like people and truly try to establish a rapport with family & everyone that I meet. My skills are experienced and I have a "good" touch for personal Care. Cooking, cleaning, and laundry are no problem. I have improved the health of two past clients that were chronically ill through diet, exercise, & good care.

Live-in Caregiver every other weekend as respite for regular caregiver. Personal Care, meals, meds, exercises, & companionship. This neighbor became a dear friend who I spent 3 Christmas with when my children were young. They opened their presents at her house & she taught us to have a snowball fight with the used wrapping paper. She was 103 when she passed & is still missed.

Although I have always had a natural ability to help others, I became interested in caregiving and the healthcare field after taking care of my uncle who had cancer. I understood the importance in providing quality care for those in need. As a certified CNA, being passionate in what I do, responsible, empathetic, and self-less are the qualities I am proud to carry. An accomplishment I am proud of is going back to school to pursue nursing and maintaining a high GPA.
