About Andrea

I am a very positive person, I love helping others and taking care of anyone and everyone. I am a mother of 6 beautiful children and I have 2 boys that have passed away. So taking care of others to my full potential and even beyond warms my heart. I don't believe I decided to become a caregiver, I believe I was born to help others... it was a gift given to me. What I Love most about being a caregiver is the bond and trust you develop with each other. One of my personal achievements I am highly proud of is being a wonderful mother and wife and still be able to continue my education and be a positive role model in their lives... never giving up, no matter how hard life gets.

I am happily married to my husband Jared of nine years this June 19th. Both of us have a sweet cat, Zoe, which is her name. I enjoy taking care of the elderly, and getting to know them, while maintaining my licensure. If you need anything, then you can count in me. Blessings.

I work for the agency for over 5 years now and before that I took care of my grandparents for decades until they passed away. They are the reason why I became a caregiver. I consider myself as very patient and have a great compassion for another because of my understanding of what the person is going through. My actual clients say I am attendant, dependable and trustworthy, beside my excellent time management and organizational skills. I enjoy being a caregiver because I like working with elderly people and like to help others in this way. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better - that can be extremely rewarding.
