About Elvira

I enjoy helping people with their daily needs. I understand that at times families need a little assistance with their loved ones, my father passed in June 1st 2020 I was his main caregiver from morning to night, sometimes all night, Hospice came in a few months before his passing, thou I was a little against it at first, because I was hesitant that no one could care for him as I could It took some time, quite a bit of time really, but eventually it really did help me, I was able to get some rest, spend a little time with my grandkids, and come back to my father at 100%, I was more focused and not so tired all the time, which was so important in order to provide the care he needed. I didn't really realize the importance it was to being a provider until it hit home.I loved my job before then, but once it hit home I saw first hand how important and how helpful it was and how it so much helped with the stress and just the regular daily nessessities that needs to be done to keep up with the home and family. I have been a provider for about 30+ yrs, it's just been these past 2 yrs I became committed to my dad and only him because his health decreased so I couldn't continue helping other families He's gone and in peace now and he longer needs me, However I know what I love to do and it's providing, helping people on their daily tasks that they can no longer do on their own I want to help families with their loved ones, give you time out for sleep, rest, work or even just some personal alone me time, whatever it takes for you to come back well rested n take care of ur loved one, that's where I'd love to help.

I enjoy helping people very much. I like making someone's life a little brighter if I can. As a parent and a former caregiver, I can honestly say that the most rewarding part of the job is the relationships I got to make with the people I cared for.
