About Latanya

I am understanding, patient, and funny. I see the glass as half full. I enjoy working with seniors. I feel that seniors have lived a life and that deserves respect within itself. I know that I am capable of fulfilling the needs of your family member. I am willing and able to assist with daily task and activities while being mindful of the need for independence, in some cases, and will provide stand by assistance in those instances for task. Lighthouse keeping such as small laundry loads, changing the linen, sweeping, mopping, dishes are not an issue for me. I will make sure you loved one is feed, hydrated, and given snacks if they wish. I enjoy caring for seniors because they have a lot to offer in regards to learning especially life lessons and different point of views. Each senior is unique and the years they have under the belt contains wisdom. I'm looking for a job that allows me to care for an individual in a way that helps them to keep as much independence, dignity, and self respect as possible. I started caring for seniors when I volunteered in junior high school and through my then church. My skills include patience, empathy and companionship- talking and listening, activities that the senior enjoys, as well as bathing and laundry.

I've been a CNA for 10 years. I have experience in Nursing Homes, and currently working at Baptist Hospital, been there for 5 years now. I am a people person. I love taking care others. I love when I see a smile on my patients face as I enter the room. I love getting Thank you cards, and being in spot light for Baptist. I am a hard working and my job is to care for you or a loved one. Hope to start my own business one day. Grays' SunFlower Care.

I decided to make a career change from corporate America to doing something meaningful and helpful. Caregiver is what I've basically done my whole life. Caring for my children, family, grandchildren, mother. So when I visit my clients I feel as if they are my mom, dad, grandma, I love helping other's with things they can't do. I also enjoy showing the elderly how to do things on the phone. Everything I do is for God's glory. I also enjoy cooking healthy meals and using food , herbs and spices as medicine.
