About Ruth

I am an honest, reliable, and confident caregiver. I have a total of 44 years of caregiver experience with a variety of skill sets. I specialize in interacting with a client and making sure is feeling comfortable and supported throughout their care. I really enjoy 1:1 interfacing with clients to really get to know what their needs are and how I can support them in any way. I really enjoy hearing my client's stories and building an intimate relationship with them beyond my scope as a caregiver.

Hi I'm Ateka, I've been a caregiver for 10yrs. Working as a caregiver is very fulfilling as I enjoy seeing my clients happy and healthy. I believe that you should always take care of those who can't help themselves. In my country of Ethiopia I took care of senior citizens. We believe that the elderly should never suffer nor go into Nursing Homes to be alone. My hope is one day all people who need assistance will be able to get the quality care they need and deserve.
