About Kim

I became a caregiver because I'm very compassionate about people and there well being. I believe that people heal better at home where they're most comfortable. I'm able to help people who can't help themselves. Giving is what I like to do. Caring, is who I am. I took care of my mother for 8yrs, who suffered from Alzheimer's before her death and I would do it again and again. I'm a passionate person who cares about life and the people I come in contact with, I'm humble, I take nothing for granted, because life is precious, I hate being late for anything, what ever I start its a must to finish. I enjoy helping others who have a hard time helping themselves it's rewarding for me to know that people need me.

    Everyone needs help from time to time. I like being that for someone, and hopefully making their day nicer, too. It's the little things that make a bad day better. I am not certified, but I have had multiple jobs as a caretaker, skills coach, and mental health aide. I have experience in most skills requested, and am very comfortable performing all care needs. I am open to expanding my skills, and will put in the extra effort and research needed. Ive had training in most everything listed, including lifting, mobility, CPR, and first aid. For anything else, please feel free to ask! Thank you.
