About Tenisha

Helping service disabled individuals is a passion that I hold greatly. To service of their everyday needs is rewarding. I get to the opportunity to show love to the person and people loved ones by helping them with their daily needs. My great-auntie passed away in February 2014 and She called me to come and live at her home and help her with her day to day needs, regretfully I was not aware she was as sick as she was, but in her sickness and her passing I was so grateful that she wanted me to be there for her and care for her day to day needs. I am hard-working, easy going, quick to listen and slow to speak. I want the chance to be able to show the clients the same gestures I was granted to show my great aunt.

I became a caregiver because my grandmother needed me to help her stay independent and at home. I love being a caregiver and I am always meeting new and interesting people who all have different walks of life . I am most proud of my ability to relate to everyone. I have invested 20 + years and countless hours into my career training and it is really rewarding. I am a CNA and I am excited about the opportunity to care for people who need my help. I am CPR certified and I have been trained to work with a variety of different people. I am reliable and consistent. I have a kind and compassionate attitude. I really enjoy doing my life's work.
