About Kerri-Ann

I am an honest, caring, patient person who enjoys helping and giving companionship to individuals. I originally took a job working as a caregiver while attending school to become a medical assistant but fell in love with it and ended up doing it full time instead. The joy and satisfaction I get when I make my clients smile and their life a little brighter and easier is indescribable. I myself is a mother of a son who is on the Austim spectrum knows it can be a little tough at times. I have amassed several skills over the years dealing with both adults and kids that I incorporated into my daily life and have become second nature to me. My son has been blessed with great teachers and he gets therapy as well as I have been working with him at home and he has improved a lot. I'm very proud of the fact the he went from barely reading in prek 1 &2 to an excellent fleunt reader in kindergarten. My son has been propositioned to enroll in one of the city's gifted school for mathematics.

My expertise in caring for the aged is my patience,love,empathy,trustworthliness and flexibility makes me stand out in this field of care. My grandmother inspires me to be a great caregiver. When she was sick, i accompany her to the hospital,wash her clothes,cook for her and made sure im there when she needed me. The excitement and joy she had on her face when im with her makes me proud that at least i made her happy before she died. When caring for the aged i have the empathy because i feel like caring for my grandmother and to make someone feel happy means me feel good that my grandmother will be happy wherever she is. Being a caregiver is full of ups and downs but it has a great influence on my relationship with others. When a loved one whether they are of a sound mind or not deserve to be treated with love,needs attention and this is a priceless gift
