About Gerri-Lyn

I am a former Special Education Teacher turned caregiver when my own mother became Ill. I believe my patience, compassion and ability to connect with people makes me a great caregiver. I enjoy the elderly population because I believe they are a wealth of knowledge and absolutely love conversing with them. The hours of caregiving most fits my personal needs , but helping people reach their potential always has put a smile on my face.

Hi my name is Mazuwa or you can call me Sunny. I have worked in the care industry for over 15 years. I worked as a caregiver straight out of high school and have continued to do what I love. I am married with 3 kids that keep me on my toes. What I enjoy mostly about being a caregiver is meeting new people that end up making lasting impressions. I look forward to meeting you. Mazuwa :)
