About Kimberly

Hello loved ones! My name is Kimberly Jenkins! If your looking for a caring, loving, loyal, dependable kind-hearted person to care for your loved one, you`ve come across the right candidate. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant. I received my license October 2013, but I have plenty background experience with the elderly, and children as well. I decided to become a caregiver once my grandmother passed away after I helped care for her. I understand how it feels to think you have lost all hope. Thats why im here to help. Helping others has always been one of my favorite things to do. Knowing I can help others makes me feel even better about myself. I love to meet new people in the progress of working. It also builds character and friendships. From my first nursing home care experience Ive been told "I love you, your the best, and dont leave." I cant help but smile when I have realized my goals have been met. Thats how I want everyone to feel every single day. Anytime you need me, ill be there for you. You can count on me.
