About Sophia

Hi families! My name is Sophia and I would love to work for you! I became a caregiver to gain experience in the nursing field but I ended up learning more than just how to take care of people, I learned so many life skills from my residents and sadly I learned that the elderly are not always being taken care of how they should be. I unfortunately had to resign from my last CNA job because I was taking care of a infant at the time and I did not want to expose him to the virus. I absolutely love being a caregiver because I enjoy the residents, I love hearing about their past and they have given me the best life advice I have ever heard! Many caregivers I have seen have not given much effort into their jobs, I would see most of them on their phones or watching TV unless the resident needed something, I pride myself in the fact that I make sure to interact with my residents, I love hearing their life stories, the hobbies they used to have, what crazy things they have done, and how proud they are of their children and grandchildren.

I decided to become a home health provider because my father suffered a gunshot wound which left him paralyzed. I was only 8 I would see the home health providers come to my house and help take care of my dad and do things for him that he no longer could do and I was very grateful for that at the same time I seen the tremendous help that it also provided for my mother considering she was a mother of 9 children. So I knew that I wanted to help others who there needs even if it was something as simple as cleaning for them and knowing that it also takes off alot of strain on the family members. So if I could bring a little relief to someone and their families even for just a few hours that's rewarding to me and that's the best part of being a provider
