About Diana

I very much enjoy being able to care for people, particularly the elderly and those unable to care for themselves. I am very caring, compassionate and loving person, love to make people smile and feel at ease. I currently work in a hospital setting and while I enjoy helping and assisting the patients I am assigned to, I have also been assigned one to one care which for me is more gratifying giving that person the proper care and attention they require. Being a companion to someone and brightening up their day,putting smiles on their face makes it all worthwhile,and I know I was meant to be in this profession because I enjoy what I do very much.

There's no better feeling than knowing you or a loved one is safe, comfortable, and happy. I know; I was a primary caregiver for two family members before becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant. Helping others is more than a job to me. It's my calling. With more than a decade of experience in home health care, I understand the importance of being warm, compassionate, patient, understanding, competent, reliable, and punctual. During these difficult times, being Covid 19 safe is paramount, too. I am extremely vigilant about precautions, like mask wearing, frequent hand washing and sanitizing my vehicle. I offer part-time assistance with personal care, medication, light housekeeping, errands, and companionship. I also provide hourly driving services for medical appointments, hair salons, or grocery shopping. My rates are based on hours, location and frequency of visits. I look forward to hearing from you and assisting your needs.
