About Oma

Hello! My first job as a caregiver was at a day center for guests with Dementia/ Alzheimer's. I've never worked a job that provided such a service of compassion. Working as a caregiver has encouraged me to be much more patient and understanding of other's circumstances at work and in my daily life. Caregiving is the first rewarding job I have ever had the privilege to do. I am a certified yoga instructor so I enjoy to be healthy and I am mindful of my body as well as my client's. I will make sure to handle them with care as well as to bring their attention to how they can be more healthy. I am considerate, and enjoy conversations; and I love smiling and I hope I can bring joy to your life.

My parents were both very involved with volunteering. I learned early on the benefits and rewards of being caring, kind and helping others. My mom lived in her own home until she recently passed away at 98. We had various caregivers for her over the years, and while some were wonderful, there were many more that were not. I treat people the way I would treat my own mother...with respect and dignity. I try to find what brings joy to whomever I'm caring for. Do they like to sing or be sung to, play cards, board games, go for a walk? I can help clean, make meals, get groceries, transport to and from Dr visits and hair appointments or just give a full time caregiver a break. I helped my mom with bathing, grooming and dressing and am willing to learn how you do things. I have a heart of gold when it comes to people who need a little extra help, especially the elderly. I'm reliable, patient, trustworthy and will always show up with a smile. I hope to hear from you....Denise Will also do evening checks after 5:30 p.m. I can make sure your loved one has eaten dinner or I can make them dinner, taken medications, help them get ready for bed, take dog out, make sure doors are secured or just visit. Will stay a min of 3 hours @ $22 an hour. Will help with transportation to and from the hospital and after care from surgery/plastic surgery. I will gladly give you references upon request. P.S. - I should also mention that I'm allergic to cats....sorry!
