About Cynthia

I became a caregiver, because I enjoy taking care of others. I like the pleasant feeling you get when you have done something small and insignificant for a resident, but that simple task has made their day much better. I am a hard-worker, caring, and patient with others. I have experience working with all ages and a variety of physical/mental disabilities. I worked in a day care center for 10yrs. Stayed home raising 3 children. Was a PCA taking care of a teenager with MS and other disabilities for 1yr. In high school I volunteered in the special ed classes helping with schoolwork, range of motion, massages & stretches, communication skills, and assisted with meals. I am CNA qualified and been working in a nursing home for 2yrs.

    I am an educated 27- year- old female who has empathy for people of all walks of life. I truly believe in the say, " when you hurt one person it is like you've hurt the entire humanity.." I also believe what you put in is what you will get out, therefore I strive everyday to be companionate, caring, fair, honest, adventurous, non traditional, rule follower, trustworthy, unbiased, not judgmental,hopeful, hard working, and positive. I consider myself to both an introvert and extrovert. I enjoy entertaining people. I work well in group settings and I absolutely enjoy solitude time. Solitude times produces some of my best cleaning jobs area the work place. I am completely always open to constructive criticisms. I am a rapid learner and I learn well. I am physically tuff and enjoys challenges. Completing a task and well releases dopamine for me.
