About Linda

I became a caregiver when my own grandmother reached age 92 and could no longer care for herself. I took her into my home and became her caretaker for 3 years. I bathed her, cooked for her and cleaned her clothes. We often went out for outings and enjoyed one another. After she passed away, I established a nonprofit organization where I began caring for elderly clients. I love being a caregiver because I love elderly people and will always be there to take care of them with patience and understanding. I am proud that I was able to take care of my grandmother and my elderly 81 year old client until their demise. I am proud that I exhibit a calm, patient and understanding attitude and clients commend me for this trait. I am a retired 53 year woman who enjoys helping people. I raised 3 children and now have 3 grandchildren. I enjoy pets and love to camp, swim and read.

    I am attracted to being a caregiver because i enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where you have one-on-one interaction with others. Being a caregiver makes me do work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I don't ever say, "that's not my job" but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed and like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better.I do take pride in your attention to detail. My personal achievement that am proud of is having been selected as the best hard-working caregiver that works well in a team and is willing to learn at all times. I do feel that when am older, i'd want someone like myself there to help you if you need help
