About Kayla

I am very loyal, dedicated, patient and disciplined. All of these traits were honed almost to perfection from spending the three years of public high school I had in JROTC. I used to take care of my grandparents and I grew a soft spot for taking care of people who can't care for themselves. I enjoy giving people someone to talk to, someone who will listen to them as if they were actually people instead of someone who needed help. I am very proud of being known as a reliable and kind hearted person, someone who puts others needs before their own

My grandma
I took care of both of my grandparents on my mother's side. My grandfather has a stroke and had to rely on metal leg braces and an electric wheelchair for mobility. My grandmother needed a wheelchair too, another heavy electric. I spent most of my childhood loading/unloading those wheelchairs from the back of a van (gaining a lot of physical strength), helping in navigation to various commodities places, hospitals, etc., I learned basic cooking from them and my parents, I had to change adult diapers and clean my grandparents and their home, take care of their dog, clothe them, make sure they took their meds, provided them company, etc. I've grown a soft spot for the elderly or disabled because of this experience

Hi. My name is Becky. I have been a caregiver for over 20 years and still love it. I have a heart and passion for working with the elderly. I love helping them with their daily lives, chores, (helping with bathing, dressing, light house cleaning, cooking and feeding. Medicine reminders or giving medicine to them)and keeping them active. I have worked with clients that range with nothing wrong they just wanted companionship to ones who have dementia, and on hospice care. It makes me happy knowing that I can help them and help their families and giving them a break when they need one. I understand being a caregiver is a hard job and can be overwhelming at times for families. If I can help them out that is what I want to do. I love hearing their stories and about the old days for them.
