About Jessica

My name is Jessica and I am currently a pre-med student taking a gap year while applying for school next fall. I've spent the last three years since graduating High School travelling and working in different states & countries to learn more about health and different cultures. Since I was in elementary school though, I have always had a passion for volunteering and serving with older people both personally and in Nursing homes. As the oldest sibling of seven kids and 3 dogs, helping out around the house (with cleaning, cooking, running errands and everything in between) I'm no stranger to hard hands-on work and love being engaged in personal development with others. I have a wide range of work experience from Vanderbilt Medical centre hospital, Girl Scouts of America, food services, cleaning, and private companies in the Nashville area. Having just gotten back from spending an extended period with my Grandmother, I want to continue learning and being of service to a family looking for an extra hand with their ageing family members. Currently, I live in Goodlettsville and am looking to stay in the mid to northeast area of town. I'm available every day except for Sundays, August 25th, October 6th, November 3rd, and December 1st - as for the Christmas holiday I may have plans to be out of town for the last 2-3 weeks of December. My preference for work would be mid-morning to afternoons but am open to discussing personalized schedules depending on needs.

The love I have for people whom can't help themselves what has help me to be a great caregiver from working in daycares to working in private homes with other love ones. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my family gave care for years I watched my mother work in nursing homes to private duty nursing as a little girl growing up to have a heart. What I enjoy the most about caregiving is seeing a smile on there face just to know a stranger can care so much. I achieved a heart for people. I achieve growth in the company I work for also I went from working in the homes to working in the office. I was so proud of myself
