About Monica

Friendly, enthusiastic, trustworthy and most importantly compassionate individual with multiple years experience in caring for elderly/mentally ill clients. I am able to learn new tasks quickly and efficiently. I am proficient in growing key client relationships and am able to represent the caretaking community with integrity, courtesy, and professional demeanor at all all times. I am a mom to a beautiful 4 year old little girl - NUMBER ONE care taking role any person or parent would be proud of. I am a caretaker by nature and go out of my way daily to help any and all people I come in contact with. I too come from a family of veterans who also are so very thankful for the services received through the VA. What I love most about being a caretaker is how rewarding the job is. Going out of my way to enhance someone else's life or make their day a little easier and happier then it would've been otherwise makes me happy and makes me feel accomplished and feel like a better person all around. I am also a reiki practitioner and follow 5 key principles in my life both inside and outside of work on a daily basis: - Just for today I will not worry - Just for today I will not be angry - Just for today I will do my work honestly - Just for today I will have gratitude - Just for today I will be kind to every living thing One of my favorite memories of being a home health aid/direct support professional is going on vacation with one of my clients who was 68 at the time. We got to spend a whole week together marking off some of her bucket list which included riding her first roller coaster! What a rewarding experience that was! I look forward to creating new amazing relationships & new amazing memories with new amazing individuals/clients. We're here to help each other. Let me help you & your loved ones today!

I reported that you were like a tornado cleaning and straightening everything you were asked to do. And I said we loved you!! I loved your write-up about yourself and didn't feel a need to interview you. You were even better than you described!! We couldn't be happier with your performance!!
