About Tonia

I became a caregiver because I enjoy helping, and doing for others that need help. Being a caregiver allows me to have a sense of accomplishment, and inner peace. After all, to me they are like family. It nice to know they are happy to see me when I arrive. One of my greatest personal achievements is that I was able to be there for my mom, to take care of her when she needed me the most. I am a mother of three wonderful daughters, and grandmother to my precious grandson. Cooking and singing are some of my favorite things to do, and share with others.

    When I was a little girl my goal was to become a nurse so I can help the sick and needy. What I love about it I am making people happy, making them feel safe and know someone love them. What I am proud about is God Bless me with the heart of knowing how to give care to the sick and needed. I am a team player and what ever I give I do my best.

    I am a honest, punctual, and responsible caring person who loves caring for people who are unable to care for themselves. I have been doing that for many years and i enjoyed doing it. And, no matter how much difficult the patients are, I try my best to treat my patients the same way I or my love's one would like to be treated. Whoever wants to take a chance with me, would not be, disappointed.
