About Jennifer

I have worked as a Homemaker and Companion and also a Housekeeper at an assisted living facility. I'm kind, compassionate, I empathize with family members because my mom was extremely sick for a couple of years and I know the importance of caring for those who can no longer be independent. I enjoy being a caregiver because I know I'm helping them feel like they still have a sense of independence, that they feel like someone cares about them and to see them happy to see me gave me great joy. My personal achievement was getting them to accept and trust me.
