About Carrie

Hello! Let me tell you a little about myself. My greatest strength is empathy. I believe this trait helps me be great caregiver, because I can feel what it is like to be in someone else's shoes. I am caring , compassionate and considerate. My corporate career was in Human Resources, a field that was not a good fit for someone who is sensitive and empathetic to peoples needs. I left this career to be home with my two kids, and to care for children in my home while their parents are at work. Caring for children in my home has been wonderfully fulfilling, but I am now looking to find employment outside of the home, in a position where I can provide quality and compassionate care.

I have 2 years experience with a variety of clients. I can help with Transportation, Meal Preparation and Companionship. I was a history major in college and love hearing stories from our senior citizens. I have college age twin girls, a high school aged son and 2 cats. I enjoy reading, gardening, bird feeding/watching, puzzles and home improvement projects. I would love to talk and discuss how I might assist your loved one.

I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with the elderly. I enjoy making them feel special. Making them laugh. Listen to their stories about their youth and family. I started as a live in five days a week for a couple, both in wheelchairs. After that I've taken care of three other people, two of whom passed away. I can give you references from those families. Also I have references from many friends that I've known for over twenty years. I've been a self employed live in for almost three years. After some time you get to feel like family. I've had a background check. Please let me know if you would like to meet. Thanks.
