About Candice

I am a mother of an 11 year old daughter and a military wife. I have been caring for children and seniors for 2 years. I recently moved back to NJ from Illinois where I obtained my CNA certification. I love what I do. If I've put a smile on a child or seniors face then I know I've done my job well.

Being a caregiver is one of the good decisions of my life, since I cared for my mom till she passed, I found compassion in caring for people to feel better, which then again gives me certain type of happiness. The fact that I put smiles on the faces of people makes being a caregiver a pleasant one to be. The most greatest achievement I have obtained during my service is trust, and I am proud to say so, because without trust what is the purpose of being a caregiver. I am a 34yrs with kids , and lots of experience as a caregiver. I can say so because I have been in this business for 12 yrs, and I have numerous reference to provide if needed.
