About Tekilya

My personality traits are I'm ambitious, creative, compassionate, patient, courageous, flexible, honest, humble, honorable, loyal, conscientious, persistent, resilient. When I was 17 years old my grandmother had Alzheimer's disease so my family wanted to place her into a facility that was not an option for me so I took on the role of being her caregiver while everyone worked not knowing what I was getting into being in that position really molded me to pursue that career as caregiver it was the 1 on 1 bonding experience and learning experience. I enjoy getting to know the clients and family and making the client's daily living more enjoyable by providing companionship and emotional support, Just being able to make my client's life run smoothly and be that listening ear and compassionate caregiver. My personal achievement I am most proud of would be just being a mother.
