I am a 61 year old lady and an older mom with a daughter (16 yrs) and son (23 yrs). I've been doing caregiving for over 20 years. For the last 2 1/2 years, I worked with clients with Alzheimer's and I feel very comfortable in working getting their needs met, while helping them feel safe and reducing anxiety. With becoming a caregiver, I had just finished my first semester of R.N. school when my mom and first husband both died of cancer (25 days apart) and I was needed to care for my father as his grieving made him unable to care for himself. I then, to assist me with my own grief, started to help care for others, first with hospice, then went on to caregiving for people in their homes. I love caregiving because helping people (especially older folks) brings joy and comfort to me. The trust that clients and families give to me is humbling and rewarding. Again, working with clients who have Alzheimer's takes a special place in my heart, but I love helping anyone in need. If you will try me out as a caregiver for yourself (or loved one), you will be happy and very satisfied. I have letters of reference and am happy to work with you....rest assured everything you wish/need accomplished will be done in a timely, professional and loving way.

My name is Sabrina and I have been employed as a senior & disability caregiver for over 15 years, as well as caring for my aging grandparents. The ability to give someone freedom of independence while assisting them with the things they need help with most is something that really makes me glad to be a caregiver. I find it to be a very rewarding experience. I also think it can brighten a person's day just to know they are getting the best care possible, and that they are receiving it in a dignified, respectful manner. I have experience with personal care (including incontinence & ostomy care), transfers, meal planning/ preparation, medication assistance, housekeeping, laundry, companionship, computer lessons, etc. I've been CPR & First Aid certified for over 12 years. I have also previously done daytime shifts, and 12-hour awake overnight, and 24 hour shifts. I'm upbeat, and have a strong work ethic. At the end of the day, it's not just a job, it's an opportunity to help someone in need of assistance. Hope to hear from you soon!
