About Tonya

I have been a CNA for 20 years. I injoy the knowledge that the elderly can share with all of us. I have cared for my mother through her cancer through my teens and that started me in caregiving. Its in my blood. Now my husband is going through cancer and my youngest son is here in the Navy. Thats why we are moving here. We have 4 grandchildren and one other son in Colorado. I have been married for 33 years. I love to bake and do crafts as a hobby.

    I like to put a smile on the clients face , making them happy, making them look forward to seeing me. It is in my heart to help people & to do what it takes to get the job done for them. Just to know that I made there day. The client can't wait to see me again because I did make a difference in their day & also in their life. What ever it is that they want to do like go shopping go visiting , out to eat or just sit down & have a conversation. I have been a special needs & handicap bus driver for the school system for over 15 yrs. I have took care of elderly gentleman for over 12 years. Also worked in a retirement home & I just love it, to know when I go home that I made a person day or made them smile. That are happy & can't wait until the next day when I see them. I also clean, (houses, apartments) or just help with whatever your needs are.

    Caring for others has always been a passion of mine. Not only am I great at gaining the trust of others, but I am a very reliable and dependable person. I enjoy helping people live happier and less stressful lives. My favorite part about being a caregiver is seeing someone accomplish something he/she never could before and seeing that person feel proud because of it. A person achievement I am proud of is maintaining a level of patience that is very uncommon these days, especially when it comes to assist those with intellectual disabilities. I am a 25 year old young lady who enjoys the simple things in life like seeing the sun shine brightly everyday or spending time with family while watching a comedy movie and pigging out on pizza. I love the beach and reading. I currently reside in Summerville, SC but I am a California girl at heart. I am also a hard working student at Trident Technical College. I do not currently have any children but I do enjoy them. I sometimes smile uncontrollably so be careful because it can be contagious!
