About Kimberly

Hello! My name is Kimberly Watts. I'm born and raise from Lansing, MI. I've been caregiving since May 2007. I started doing it with people my grandmother knew, my step aunt and I also took care of my grandmother for about 6 months. I've done pretty much everything. You name it. I also, have CPR/FA/AED training, RR training/med training/working with people training. I have a driver license, reliable transportation and reliable/dependable person. I can show you, I don't have to tell you nothing. I have a good personality. People person and outgoing. People would say about me. Plus that I'm caring and having patience. I got in this field because I love talking to older people. I love meeting new people. Helping people as well. I hope a great family picks a great caregiver. We need more caregivers like me. Thank You for Reading!

What makes me a great caregiver, is the love and passion I have to be one to care for another. I enjoy doing it, im not in it for the paycheck, I do it because it makes me feel good knowing I can help someone. I always grew up wanting to help others in one way or another.. I enjoy the smiles I can give someone simply by being there to assist them, knowing someone enjoys my care makes my heart swell. My biggest personal achievement I am proud of, is, my son.
