About Amanda

I started over 10 years ago at a local nursing home here in Fredericksburg, TX. I fell in love with how close you get to the patients like learning about their interests, hobbies & about their families they loved so much. I cared for each & every patient as if they were my own family. I love the sincere talks & the laughs & the time I spend with each & every single patient I worked with. I also learned alot from my alzheimer's & dementia patients. It's a day to day adventure that I welcome gladly. I have experience in hospice care as well as home healthcare. No matter where I worked I learned something from each place & each wonderful patient I had the privilege to come in contact with. Now I hope to be of some help to you to bring my patient & outgoing care to you.

I care for the elderly in their homes & sometimes do the shopping & run errands for them as well as take them to & from their therapy or regular doctor appointments. I also assist with bathing, feeding & light housekeeping. I also care for care for children on the side when a family needs a sitter for a date night I'll feed & make sure the children are bathed & brush teeth & read them a bedtime story before tucking them into bed. After they're in bed that's when I'll do some light housekeeping to make sure the home is nice & tidy for when the parents get back home. I have no problem help take care of pets when they need to be fed or let out to do their business. I've been a C.N.A for over 10 years & have taken care of children since the age of 15. Hope I can be of some help to you & your family as well- Thank you.

I am an extrovert, always smiling & seldom sit! If I can add a smile to someone's day or make them feel special, then both of us will have a rewarding day! I was a pediatric ophthalmology specialist in Canada; when we were transferred to the USA, I began a food manufacturing company. A friend approached me in 2015 to ask if I would help with their mum who was near vegetative status due to progressing dementia and being alone. Four months later, this beautiful Lady was walking, singing, dancing, and cooking with me - one of the most self-gratifying endeavors of my life. Now living in the beautiful hill country, retirement is not satisfying - I do volunteer at the VA hospital just to see these heroes smile, laugh & have someone to listen to them... and of course plenty of hugs! I would treasure being able to help another person find enjoyment in life. Hence, I am adding my profile here. *Dog lover yet terrified of cats! *COVID vaccine x2 by VA hospital. *Infusion by Peterson Hosp.

I feel that I am a great caregiver, because I love people and I have a compassion to make their lives full of quality and really love on and take care of them I am proud of this trait I love being a caregiver, because I love making people smile and making a change in their lives. I focus on every detail . there is no detail too small or too large that can't somehow be resolved if it is important to the person I would be giving care to than it is important to me. I am a Christian and that reflects in everything I do.
