About Wendy

I am a very caring person. I always found myself Helping everyone I could. I started babysitting when I was young. I helped take care of my grandma when she could no longer take care of herself who was a diabetic and I gave her, her insulin shots. My father got sick and my mom couldn't deal with it, and I took care of him. I entered the field of working with individuals with disabilities. From infant, children, young adults to the elderly. This kind of work I was meant to do. I didn't pick it, it picked me and I've been working in this field for 17 years.

I love taking care of and interacting with seniors. I have vast experience working with people who have dementia and Alzheimer's disease. I am a Practical Nurse, but not active at this time due to a life changing situation. I am on disability now and can only work part time.. I am more than capable of caring for your loved one. I can manage medications, errands, cleaning and any other needs your loved one may have. I hope you will give me the chance to meet you in person so I can show you what type of person I am. I have outstanding references from past employers.
