About Nikki

Hello! I have worked as a caregiver for seniors for several years. I am currently in grad school for Occupational Therapy, and would like to pursue a career in geriatrics. I am very patient and have a calm energy, and love to listen. I value the personal connections I am able to develop with those that I work with, and I enjoy using my abilities to help others.

What makes me a great caregiver is how I treat people with the respect and love they deserve. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my mom, i watched other people take care of her so I wanted to give the same love back to others who are in need. What I mostly enjoy about being a caregiver is helping people. A personal achievement I am proud of is how many people I've helped in my lifetime with my caregiving career:)
