About Tracy

You can always tell when someone takes a job just because it is a job, they do not love what they do and it is apparent. I love what I do, taking care of elders is something I have enjoyed since I was in High School. One of my first jobs was working in a Nursing Home and then later in life, my grandmother & my mother along with some close friends who were like family to me. I always felt I was an old soul which is why I get along with elders so well. I have always loved an old movie and Vintage Clothing, infatuated with a time that has long passed. I have raised 3 wonderful girls who are now all grown, 2 with families of their own and my youngest who is on her own and going to College. In my spare time I refurbish furniture and sell vintage clothing on the internet. I Love the beach and long country drives. I am a very outgoing person who loves people. I feel that when people feel loved they are loving, everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and kindness. Just because someone is up in age does not mean they should be treated as a child, as I learned from my earliest caregiving job. At the end of the day, no matter who I take care of, I know we made the best day we could and will do the same tomorrow..

I love to learn medical stuff, anything about healthy lifestyle. Then, I took nursing course and I graduated for 4 years and I became a Registered Nurse in Philippines. I moved here in Richmond, Va since 2010. I am enjoying this country for lots of reasons. I like taking care of people and share my knowledge, skills and profession to any health care settings. I really like to be efficient, having a passion to take care the patient and reliable. I treat them like my own family. I have been working as a Patient Care Technician since 2011 at the hospital and I got my license as a Registered Nurse too. Right now, I am looking for a part-time only. I treat people the way I would like to be treated.

I recently retired and took on a volunteer job that matches drivers to seniors who need rides to doctors appointments. This was the beginning of my understanding of what a need there is out there for caring services. I gradually found myself taking on temporary care giving jobs. Most of them in a role as a companion, cook and errands. I love all the good feelings I get from my clients and the sense that I am making peoples lives better and more comfortable. Recently I completed the training to be a teacher of "Conscious Aging". I took this training so that I would better understand some of the issues associated with aging in order to help my clients. I am a "young" retiree and most of my clients enjoy the energy and light I bring to my work.
