About Valerie

I have been in the field of being a caregiver/personal care aid for about 11 years now. I have a 4 year old son that was born with Suckle Cell Anemia and he need special care daily, I started off with caring for my mother with diabetes. I would continue to make a great caregiver because I love to help people that may need it and or who can't help themselves, it makes me feel good for doing a good thing each day.

    As a caregiver I am compassionate and caring. I decided to become a caregiver after helping care for my grandfather during his end of life. Through my 15+years of being a caregiver I understand what is means for the clients to have the care they deserve, while maintaining their dignity. I pride myself on being a team player and can adapt easily to changes. Attention to detail is important to me as well. What has made me the proudest, is the relationships I have established with my clients and their families.
