About Sarah

I was born to be a caregiver! Over the years I have always been very atune to medical needs as well as the ability to calm a screaming baby that even the mother is unable to calm. I helped care for my grandparents and my mother who passed away this year. I also cared for my daughter whom is a walking miracle! At the age of 11 she dislocated her thumb for the first time...a year and 8 hand surgeries...including both thumbs eventually fused...she was diagnosed 2 days before Thanksgiving of 2009 with leukemia. She is now 7 years chemo free but still has a few residual effects from 3 years of chemo. Some say that I have "divine healing hands" and I love healing people IF they will let me! I have always loved medice and would love to be a doula one day. I enjoy visiting with people. Some say that I can talk too much but I really dont mean to. I am next to the oldest of 6 kids and have 3 of my own. I also have 2 grandkids and one that will arrive in December. I would love the opportunity to be there to help a family with their loved one and give them a little peace of mind and take a little stress out of your life. I personally know how stressful being the "family caregiver" can be.

I am a compassionate person by nature. I've never met a person I didn't like. I treat everyone as I'd treat my own family and posses a certain understanding of the aging process that most caregivers lack. I genuinely care for every client I have and it's shows in my work.

Hello ya'll! My name is Genell. As a child growing up I have always had a servants heart [?] I get that from my grandmother! I have over 10+ years experience in working with the elderly. From assisted living, Home Healthcare, memory care (dementia and Alzheimer's), and nursing home. I'm not CNA certified but I pretty much can do everything a CNA does. My goal is to evenually get CNA certified and get a carrer in the medical field. As a child I always had a passion for helping others anyway I could. As I got older I began working with the elderly! I that I am able to help someone in need that can't so it from themselves anymore. We all get up in age and eventually and are going to need some kind of help. That's why we have people like me to come in and lend a helping hand. Who treat your loved ones with respect and dignity. I'm always willing to help assist in anyway I could
