    Hello, my name is Gerefe Freeth. I live in Ypsilanti, Michigan. I have been doing caregiving for the last six years. As a caregiver, this job is very rewarding and humbling. I'm thankful that I'm able to help to those who are unable to help themselves. I worked with several people in the past and I always get compliments and thank you notes from the family and the client itself. I treated all my clients like my own family. I grow up from a very close and loving family from the Philippines and I wanted to do the same to my future clients. I would like to work in a friendly and smoke free environment. I am willing to cook and prepare healthy vegetarian and vegan meals at your preference if it is necessary. Please let me know if you have questions feel free to message me. Thank you.

    Companionship to me for the elderly is lots and lots of conversation! I find out what they like to do whether its going for a walk, reading, doing puzzles, watching television, etc. I realize they have good days and bad days, and we could decide for that day what he/she feels up to doing. They love to be pampered. Not rushed! I enjoy helping people. I have taken care of several of my family members dealing with all sorts of issues. I've also been a home caregiver, home mealth aide, and in an assisted living I have worked as a companion too. I am reliable, punctual, trustworthy, honest, and respectful. Some seniors just want someone to hang out with them because they are lonely. Some will require physical assistance with mobility, laundry, grocery shopping, cooking, walking their dog etc. Everyone wants to have their dignity respected, especially as they age or if they are ill. I can provide detailed doctor notes, help keep their calendar updated with tasks, keep an eye on if there are changing health issues and report to someone if there are changes. I enjoy providing this care because I love helping others especially the elderly. I provide my care as if I were taking care of my own family members. You can count on me.
