About Nia

I am an intelligent, intellectually curious, savvy, compassionate and empathetic woman with a passion for caring for the elderly and vulnerable. I looked after my grandmother from the age of 15 and since then, developed a passion for caring for other people. I have a very strong belief in preserving and maintaining the dignity of the elderly through my care. I always remember that there were upright, hardworking people like myself and their age should not diminish their value and contribution to the the world today. I am a good listener and because of my avid interest in keeping abreast of current events and affairs, I am able to have a conversation on a wide range of topics. I am proud of each time I make a phenomenal difference in the life of the person in my care and their family. I am a certified New York State HHA. I also have a Business Administration Bachelor's degree and worked in the corporate world for 18 years before returning to what I consider my calling: being an exceptional care giver.

I became a caregiver to provide warmth and comfort the the elderly and disabled. I like making the client feel secure and know that they can trust me. I give 110% to everything I do. When they see a familiar face everyday it makes them feel good and their willingness becomes better as the days go by. Their faces light up and they talk to you about anything that's on their mind. Even if they say the same things over and over again, it gives them great pleasure that you are willing to listen. Seeing the happiness on their face is the best achievement that I could ever give. Knowing that they are happy and content. I have been doing this so long, it doesn't feel like a job more like accomplishment. Helping people who can't help themselves. Lite housekeeping, medication reminder, food preparation, bed bath, baths, errands, medical visits, arts and crafts, accompanying them outside, laundry, inventory and anything else they will need. My serves is available Monday thru Friday. Full days

The first thing about being a great caregiver is to listen to your client and to be patient at the same time your patience will always be comfortable talking to you I became a caregiver for my grandmother that open the door for taking care of others one of the things that I enjoy most about being a caregiver is how exciting your client feels when you come to see them it's almost like two friends having tea and challah bread one of the things that I achieve in the work that I do is how I'm able to communicate with my clients even if it is a hospice care I take great pride in what I do and I always remember getting sick and aging can happen to anyone you're not above it so you treat people with respect and hope for the same when it is your turn.
