About Jennifer

Caregiver experience of over 15 years. Former social worker. References available. Ethical, reliable, and nurturing. I'm also an animal lover with 3 rescued dogs of my own. For adult caregiving, I enjoy being helpful including errands, transportation, shopping, help with medication, bathing, mobility assistance, pet care, meal prep, light housekeeping, and companionship. Companionship means genuine interest in what they enjoy. All of my clients are adults needing caregiving with needs that vary. I meet the person where they are at and what they need. All enjoy companionship and I take great pride in truly caring. Last but not at all least, I love dogs. I can help with feeding, playing, walking/exercise, cuddles, and just keeping them company. I provide the kind of care I would want for my own family or pets. Contact me to interview me further. We can chat on the phone to discuss your needs. Thank you!

Caregiving has always been a rewarding passion of mine. I'm very passionate about what I do. This means that I'm not only in it for the compensation but I genuinely care for people in need. I work hard to prepare for possible difficulties that my clients might experience and I take the necessary precautions to make things easier. I like building rapport with my clients.

$13.00/hour · Mulberry, TN
I am a great caregiver because I first learned how to be one by helping my parents and my brother. They had certain disabilities, both physical and mental/psychological, that touched my heart and helped me realize the importance of quality of life to everyone, not just to those who are healthy. Then, I achieved 89 credits towards my BSN (bachelors degree in nursing) and graduated with honors in Surgical Technolgy from Tennessee Technology Center, First Aid at MTSU, and am a licensed CNA and am CPR/BLS certified, and have a Leadership Award from St. Thomas Hospital. I currently work at a hospital as a CNA/PCA and am looking to work part-time to possibly full-time for someone who has the need for home health and/or caregiver needs. I have excellent references and take my work seriously!
