I am a respectful and respecting lady. I love to care for the elderly as I want them to be happy, meet their basic needs, and be adjusted with their changes in health as life goes on. I have also seen that older people than myself like me. I did not have grandparents in my life, so I have a place for such elderly in my heart. Ever since I started visiting nursing homes and talking to them, I felt satisfied that I am meaningful to them and they enjoy my giving them company and sharing their thoughts. I feel proud about my passion for caring for elderly needs, and have gradually adopted it as a career. P.S.-- I will gladly give you any job references upon request anytime!! I hope and looking forward to hear from you....Aparecida. (Cida)

Hello there to all my future loved ones, I would like to thank you for taking the time out to find out more about me as a person, my capabilities, skills, experiences, compassion & Love I have when being there for the ones you love. Finding the right person to tend to your loved ones can be a bit challenging & difficult at times trust me I understand & get it. As a Caregiver I take that title very seriously which means being able to give and provide the best care possible. The word speaks for its self, being able to care for people, give the help, care, assistance & guidance to those in need. Little background: Fresh out of high school my background career wise was in healthcare/medical. Growing up I would always have a soft spot and always tried to be a help in hand to not just those in need or look like they where in need but especially to all my elders or those older then me. I was always taught to respect my elders and if I see some one needing help then be there and help assist even if some choose not to except that help....a help in hand to people is the best feeling ever knowing your capable to help them. Ive always had the heart, the compassion, the care and love for people in general which to me is a great feeling and something I love and feel good about at the end of the day. I look at it as being able to count my blessings one day if u no what I mean) Believe it or not, I truly look at it as if and thinking that one day I'm going to have to get older as well and may need that same help though and hopefully I would have or get the same kindness from others as well. Being that my background was in the medical field and working at several doctors offices having to work with patients day to day actually guided me into becoming a caregiver because ive always had the love, the compassion, just having the willing to help someone just because, and sometimes just having the patience with them because being able to have patience is EVERYTHING
