About Shantel

I first realized i wanted to be a caregiver when i started caring for my grandmother she had an stroke and a heart attack before she came to move in with us at this time i was 13 my mom worked i helped out by being there for my grandma i would help her shower,get dressed prepare her meals and remind her to take her meds..i did it because she was my grandma and i loved her but my grandma was so appreciative and greatful she didn't treat as it was my duty or responsibility and it made me feel accomplished,proud and helpful at that point i knew that this is what i wanted to do help those just like my grandma.I am 26 years old with 4 years experience i enjoy what i do my grandma use to tell if you love going to work then you've found your calling i moved to newport news from maryland a year ago to be closer to my grandfather whose health was not doing good.I'm a good candidate because i can relate to the family of how they want their loved one to be treated and i provide my care as i would my love one
