About Amanda

I am 43 years of age I have three children two boys one girl they are 22 16 + 7 and they are my passion for living! At the age of 17 my mother introduced me to caregiving in assisted living retirement and nursing homes. it gave me great joy and satisfaction taking care of other people and loving them and giving back to my community at such a young age I continued my venture with caregiving I am now 43 years old with about twenty-five years of caregiving and CNA experience. Unfortunately in 2013 I gave up my CNA license as of 2008 I became self-employed and started taking care of people in their homes the nursing homes were just not for me anymore as I had an extensive back surgery in 2006 and when I was offered my first private duty case I loved it and I've been doing it since. I'm patient I'm understanding I'm dedicated reliable compassionate and when I am taking care of my clients/ patient's I treat them with the utmost respect as for whatever reason they need help in their homes they have lived a long full life and it's my duty to make sure their needs are met they like me and they're happy.
