About Sheryl

Care-giving is a natural for me. I enjoy and take very seriously assisting my client with their activities of daily living focusing on professionalism, implementation of skills, and quality of life. At the end of the day I want my client to know that I care about them as a person by the way I talk to them and by handling them gently and carefully - not to do any harm. Additionally, I want them to feel that they still have some independence and that their opinion matters. It is important to me that my client's family members have confidence in my care for their loved one. I am willing to go the extra mile to make my client happy and comfortable. I have dependable transportation and am willing to travel to Raleigh area as well as Angier, Fuquay, Holly Springs, etc.
