About Cassaundra

Hello! I'm Cassaundra! I use to be in the hospitality industry until Covid-19 started, I decided to not go back. I started working at Home Instead Senior Care at the end of 2020 and quickly discovered it was the best decision of my life! I'm on this earth to be of service, heal and nurture, it brings me pure joy! I have a background in nursing but did not complete the program. I'm at a point now in my life where I'm ready to continue my education and get my CNA and work up from there. I am a certified personal care assistant (PCA) and have worked with individuals with TBIs as well as children and young adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities. I'm also CPR/First Aid certified, and have extensive knowledge of food safety, and experience in cleaning/organizing (work for two maids and a mop, as well as Koontz condo cleaning service.) I'm also spiritual and have natural healing abilities and have been told on many occasions that I have huge healing energy as well as general physical energy. I'm bubbly and have a bright and optimistic outlook on life. I'm known to make my clients laugh! I will be an asset to any team because caregiving doesn't feel like work to me, I absolutely enjoy it, I'm great at it and I have open availability (no kids, unmarried) so I'll be all yours and truly dedicated. Thank you for your time and consideration!

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.
