I love helping others, showing companionship. Helping them with their daily routines. I became a care giver not only to make myself happy, but to help make other lives easy.

My goal is to provide exceptional home care with a sense of warmth and kindness that enriches the life of my client and provide peace of mind to their families. Inviting someone into your home, or your parents, is a deeply personal thing. Not only do you want to make sure that your parents (family member) will be receiving the best possible care, you also want to find someone who will respect their home and personal preferences. Being an exceptional private caregiver calls for more than just being good with people, it requires proper training and experience. I am certified in CPR and Dementia Patient Care. I am trained and have hands on experience with; diabetic monitoring, vital signs monitoring, oxygen therapy, catheter care, wound care, pressure ulcer prevention, wheelchair safety and transfers, infection control, medicine management, nutrition, and client care documentation.

I have been a caregiver for 15yrs. I started off caring for my parents as they aged and then went on to work for an agency for a few years before I decided that I wanted to go on my own. I enjoy getting to know the clients and their families. I have several certifications in elderly care and am vaccinated as well.

I became a caregiver because I love making people smile and laugh! As a caregiver, I am able to spend one on one time with each client, and structure my time to meet their needs. I have worked as an LNA for over 16 years!! I also, took a phlebeotomy course, worked with clients with trachs, blind and deaf clients, dementia/alth clients, activity asst and a rehab tech also in the past!! My two children are my life!!! when I am not at work we are outdoors enjoying the weather!
