About Trisha

I have been a caregiver off and on for over 15 years. I have cared for the elderly, special needs individuals, small children, and babies. You name it and I am sure I have done it. I love caring for others! I am a very energetic and outgoing individual, and treat the individuals I care for as if they are family. I am currently seeking weekend hours, as I work as a behavior therapist during the week.

I am a great caregiver because I want my clients to know that I am there for them in any way I can help. I became a caregiver because it is a positive and rewarding job. I like being a caregiver because that means I am working as a health care professional doing what I love. I think it has been a wonderful experience getting to know my clients and working in a healthcare field. I like to read current events in the newspaper to a patient, do a crossword puzzle, or a puzzle. I also studied nutrition in college and have an Associate's Degree in Science.
