About Nikeeta

I became a care giver because I have a talent for caring for all kinds of people, even when I did not work with disable people or those who are in memory care assisted living, I took care of almost everyone in my immediate family. I am also a mother so I have much compassion for others. I also try to live with high moral goals and standards, this is not just about a paycheck for me, because I enjoy what I do. I know that it is better to give then receive, so I want to give back in my life while I am here on this earth. I also have close family who have suffered from terminal illnesses and Dementia, which I have had experience in taking care of. I know that this work takes great patience and hard work, but it makes me feel good at the end of the day that I gave it my best, knowing that I gave someone something dear to them and that is a sense that they are cared for. I believe that this is what every single one of us needs, young or old. I am very proud that I take in interest in the people I care for, not just coming in like im just doing a job, but really caring for them, and once my client gets to know me, they can testify for themselves. I am a single mother with two girls, who look to their mother because I am all they have as a parent. I want to live by example to show them that the best things in life are the things that we give for others, and hard work along with unconditional love. I enjoy learning and plan to become a nurse in the future, which is also an aspiration. I have my own background check, which I can provide during interview process.

I believe in delivering quality of life for seniors and clients of any age! Showing compassion through sincere listening and being present for the clients I care for is a top priority. Through home visits with various agencies, live-in care, and working with an Assisted Living Center my combined services to the elderly have helped me thrive in the industry of caring. In the realm of younger folks, I drove a school bus for years and taught home schooled children including my own. I taught a class on self-empowerment based on the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series too. The classes I taught were an eye-opener and perhaps opened the door to a new way of viewing life. The life experiences I've had with Seniors who have become family to me and ultimately my friends has given me much more than I could have possibly conceived of giving to them! I found that with kids, being present and seeing the beautiful gifts they have inside always brought those gifts out with the acknowledgement. The services I've provided are most assuredly a soul's calling! Senior care and working with younger folks has been a perfect fit with my desire to make a difference with others, and the kind of career I totally enjoy! I have a knack for understanding human nature and the needs of the heart and naturally, I learned this through my own life experiences. We all are truly one when it comes to matters of the heart and what this life means! Applying the knowledge of our oneness is what the care of others is all about. I'm seeing my own reflection in the hearts of those that I serve in this type of work. From that seeing, I give the best of who I am to others! Importantlly too is the fact that I am CPR and First Aid Certified and have over 20 years experience caring for Seniors.
