About Donita

I pride myself on being devoted to providing the very best care I can give to those given to my care. I was a certified nursing assistant and medication technician some years ago and because I went into another field working as a collections manager I let my licenses expire (regretfully) but I maintained the knowledge. I also remembered how rewarding an experience it is to be able to meet and care for awesome people, most of which have shared some amazing life stories with me. This is the reason I re entered this field, and I enjoy it even more now than before! I know that there may come a time in my latter years when I might need care for myself and I'm a strong believer that you get back what you give in life. I love caring for others! I have many verifiable references as proof. I hope I can be of service to you!

There are not sufficient words to convey how I felt about Donita; my caregiver. Besides her remarkable personality and incredible demeanor, she exhibited extraordinary patience and compassion when I had to adjust her schedule. She’s reliable, dependable and trustworthy; attentive to my needs. She’s like a breath of fresh air; a delightful intellectual companion. I could not have secured a caregiver that resembled me in every way without your service.  Donita went over and beyond all my expectations. Her thoughtfulness overwhelmed me where she welcomed my every whim. Thank you for permitting Donita go to my home and be my caregiver.

Some of my personal traits and being a caregiver is my love for the job. I have always love to help people regardless of the situation and there is a shortage on good people and honest people. What attracted me to being a caregiver was my great grandmother and my mom. When my great grandmother got very ill we took care of her until her last days that meant feeding bathing changing colostomy bag changing catheter And just being a companion. I also help my mom take care of a autistic girl for five years. The thing I love most about being a caregiver is the people you meet along the way and a wonderful stories you hear. When I look at my mother I know one day she may or may not be in a situation to need me so I want plenty of practice along the way. One of my biggest achievement was graduating from the phlebotomy school last year. My other biggest achievement is continuing to take care of my special needs son and my other job while balancing out life and everything around me

I've been in this field for twenty three years. Helping people who can't help themselves is very rewarding to me. I feel I've made a difference in their lives. I love making my clients feel loved and wanted by smiling, listening, and attending to their needs.
