About Kathy

I became a caregiver because I have my heart set on helping others. My passion has always been to put others before myself and it has stuck with me. Caring for my grandfather for 3 years has made me realize that every little moment matters and what better way to spend it with him is to be at his side 24/7. A personal achievement I am proud of is being able to branch out on my own from growing up in Washington State for 18 years and now living the life in California as a student in college trying to pursue her degree in nursing. I am a very friendly person with a huge heart which can be a strength as well as a weakness for myself.

    Hello, My name is Dana and I love being a caregiver because I enjoy making others happy.Even if it is something as simple as a favorite meal or activity, program etc. Since everyone is unique, listening and patiently learning to adapt to meet the needs of each individual has been the most helpful for me. Learning about their preferences and interests gives me ideas for activities they may enjoy doing during our time together. I have been caring for others for 10 plus years and have great empathy, insight and intuition. I respect the privacy and family of every person I care for. I love cooking and nutrition and can prepare many different types of food if desired. As a caregiver,I commit to the person and they become an important priority in my life and I look forward to my time with them. Thank you so much and best wishes to you and your loved one.
