About Denise

Over the years, I have always cared for others (aunt, uncle, godmother, sister, and mom). My mother was an educator as well as a natural caregiver of others. I assisted her and I learned a lot. We both enjoy helping others. I am respectful, knowledgeable of basic hygenic and healthcare practices, hardworking, compassionate, observant, with a strong background in science. Seeing the dignity that grows in individuals when they know someone respects and cares for them has been a major draw to my being a caregiver. I am pleased to assist others in improving and/or maintaining their health. My greatest personal achievement is being grateful for my life's journey.

Cared for my mother starting in February 2015 after a cerebral stroke. Over the course of several years, her health gradually declined. She had a massive stroke in 2019 that left her paralyzed on the right side and unable to speak. However, she was able to comprehend our conversations. Mom passed this October 22, 2021 at the age of 100. Her caretaking included feeding, changing diapers, bathing, washing hair, changing clothes, administering medications, observing all aspects of her health to report to nurse and/or physician, and more.

Hello I'm Donovan, I've been a personal caregiver now for three and half years. I found my passion in this service, after only being in the business for a week. It's my true and only goal to be not only a great and helpful companion, but a friend as well. Look forward to meeting you. Donovan
