About Linda

I became a caregiver to serve others and help them in their time of need. Some needs are small or temporary; others are more complex or time-intensive but both are important to those who need assistance. No other type of work I have ever done has ever matched the personal satisfaction and joy of serving others. I'm proud to have provided care in all stages of life - from infants to 80+ year old rocking, awesome grandparents. :) I love to cook, clean, and can help as needed with more sensitive topics. Please know, I do have a full time employment so I can only assist on a part-time basis.

    I understand the needs of seniors, their individual care and respect their need for preservation of ' self-respect & identity. I have 20+ years in diversified care needs for seniors. I took care of my own mother the last 10 years of her life with heart, stroke an finally cancer Health issues. I went back to college to pursue Health ENT & medical administrative needs. But my expertise @ demeanor lended itself into the world of caring for seniors. I began a 501c non-profit foundation to grant the final wishes of seniors with less than a year to live with my mother"s inheritance to me. It has granted neatly 250 final wishes @ is reun by a 'Board of Director's' out of Antioch, CA. It is called 'An Elderly Wish Foundation.' I am widowed 2 years now @ spend my time independently employed to care for seniors. I am in excellent health @ do gym work-outs regularly. I like to 'meet' my clients before committing to their care. It is important for our relationship to be compatible, so I am 'clear' on their individual needs. I only want to work part time for one long term client...and would relocate my apartment closer to their city if the match was mutual. I am a strong Christian woman and I walk daily ' in Gods Word'
