About Heather

I believe myself to be an excellent caregiver because I'm very kind, respectful, reliable and devoted to making my client satisfied with my services. I became a caregiver because I like helping people in need. I understand everyone needs help at some point in their life, and if I can make a difference in at least one persons’ life then my goal is met. I believe I would be the best candidate for this position because I hold my services to high standards and treat my clients with the same respect I treat my loved ones. I'm very thorough with the services I provide and perform them in a timely manner. Attendance and reliability is a major concern when considering applicants. I pride myself upon being a punctual trustworthy person that most people can rely on.
