About Kellie

The whole reason i got into being a caregiver is my grandma, i started out taking care of her when i was in high school and loved it. I love being a caregiver because i get to see the joy in my clients face and i enjoy helping others live a happy life. I am proud of myself for being the only one in the family that finds joy in taking care of others and that i went to college and graduated. I have been a caregiver for over 5 years and its a job that i actually enjoy, it has opened my eyes to different thing i never thought was there. It also showed me that the simplest things can make someone so happy as in example like the joy kids bring to elderly and also to the people with disabilities.

    I have a lot of love to give. I'm a very compassionate person, which is very important in this field. I have a lot of patience, willing to learn, and have nothing but respect for those I care for. I bonded so well with my previous residents which made the job that much better. I hope I can be of help!
