About Angela

I'm compassionate and caring and give 110% of myself during my time with the client. I enjoy reading to the clients and listening to their stories. I usually take the lead from the client and allow them to decide what they'd like to do for the day i.e. read, talk, listen to music, exercise, watch movies. My goal is to make the client comfortable and to feel safe while in my care. I enjoy preparing their meals and take the time to know the foods they can manage and the foods that they enjoy most. Once I know the client I will bring special meals and baked goods for them to enjoy. I'm attentive to their medical needs, the medications that they take and make sure they are rested and comfortable.

I started my journey as a home care aide, with experience I worked my way into a nurse delegated CNA position. I love every minute of it. I enjoy building a relationship with the people I work with, my main priority is to provide quality compassionate care. I think what makes me a great caregiver is my attentiveness to my clients, I listen to my clients, I'm there for my clients, my clients needs and changes are my concern. When it comes to the health and well being of my clients, I want to make sure that they are doing well, emotionally and physically. What do I enjoy most about being a caregiver? I enjoy the interaction, i get to be in the presence of so many wonderful people who have stories to tell. It might sound cliche but I genuinely love knowing that i can help another person in this world, so that is exactly what i do. I'm proud to be continuing my nursing education at Loyola University in Chicago, granting me a BSN degree come May 20'.

Hi, my name is Jackie. I am 45 years old and I have over 10 years of experience as a caregiver. I became a caregiver because I enjoy to spend time with elderly and listen to thear stories. I feel really lucky to have best clients so far and I am glad be able to help them as much as a can. About myself - I am from Bulgaria, Eastern Europe. I speak English, Russian and my native Bulgarian languages. I am a Pharmacy Technician. I took a degree from I.R.T. Technical College in Skokie, IL in 2008. I worked 7 years for Traycee Home Care agency and last 4 years I've been a private caregiver. I also have a hospice experience, but mostly I've been taking care of clients suffering from Alzheimer's/Dementia, stroke and diabetes. If you are interested in my services, please send me an email or give me a call. Thank you
