About Christy

I became a caregiver because I was hospitalized when i was a teenager and I slipped into a coma and although I couldn't respond I could hear the voice of the nurses that took care of me daily and I decided after that experience i wanted to help others in the similar situations. I love caring for people period, I love knowing that i am making a difference in someone elses life. I am proud of myself because I was able to complete an Associates Degree. I became a mother early in life and I had to put my education on hold to be a mom and the one thing I would like to share about myself is that I love helping others and I am proud of myself for all the accomplishments I have made in life, from becoming a CNA I, CNA II, and now completing an associates degree and working towards my bachelors.

    I am trustworthy, patient, respectful, generous, and compassionate. The expertise that helps me to be a great caregiver is being a mom. Being able to help others is what attracted me to being a caregiver. Seeing the person, I help feel a sense of accomplishment, brightening someone's day, and just showing others that there are people who are willing to help is what I enjoy the most. One personal achievement I am proud of is that it seems my child is growing to be a thoughtful person by observing myself and others.
