I have been in the caregiving field for 13+ years, both in private homes and skilled nursing facilities. I am a highly skilled, reliable, and gifted caregiver. I serve my clients with the utmost respect, compassion, and kindness. My clients and their families find me to be pleasant and lighthearted. I listen well and am extremely intuitive and empathetic in my caregiving. I initially became a caregiver because of my great-grandmother, who lived with my family from the time I was two years old until she fell and broke her hip when I was seventeen. She was a truly lovely woman and spent the last year of her life in a nursing home. I have always felt that by becoming a caregiver, my care of others somehow extends to her, even though she's been long gone from this earth plane. There's so much I enjoy about caregiving. It is a joy to know that my assistance helps to lift the hearts and ease the minds of those I care for and their families. I find great joy in connecting with the people in my care, in communicating with them, hearing their stories or their families stories about them, of connecting heart to heart. I love how much caregiving has, and continues to, expand my heart and my capacity to hold others with ever greater respect, compassion, understanding, and kindness. I am happy to provide references upon request.
