About Shakira

I became a caregiver while taking care of a close relative and decided to make a career out of it. There is nothing more rewarding than helping others, especially when you can put a smile on their face. One of the greatest personal achievement I'm proud of are my kids. I'm a very hard worker, I have a sharp eye for detail, compassionate also a great listener. I have obtained other training as well wich includes Fundamentals of Cargiving, First Aid, Mental Health Specialty Training and Nursing Delegation.

Being an older female, I understand some of the challenges that seniors face as they grow older. I have a very caring nature and maturity to handle the situations that might come up during the time of my scheduled work. I am very dependable and responsible to follow through on commitments that I have made. I like the flexibility that care giving allows, and yet I know that I am making a REAL difference to seniors in allowing them to stay in their homes. I have a reliable vehicle (with insurance) and a clean driving record. I would be open to providing transportation to appointments or events. I am the proud mother of 7 children and three granddaughters. I have good relations with family and friends and know the importance of good emotional health. I have a good outlook on life and am upbeat around others and clients. I enjoy going to the YMCA on weekday mornings to do water aerobics. I am active in my church and enjoying volunteering in missions.

Hi there! My name is James and I became a CNA after attending the accredited program at South Seattle College in 2014. I get joy and a sense of fulfillment when working with people and helping them to accomplish their goals. Since becoming a CNA, I have continued with school and I have completed my Associates of Science. While working, I have obtained Certifications for Dementia Care and Nurse Deligation. Before becoming a CNA, I was a Commercial Diver that traveled all over. I have been to most of the Americas and a little bit of Europe. I have a story for just about every conversation! I find that older folks have some really interesting things to share, if one is willing to listen a bit. Earlier in life I was a Calvaryman in the US Army. I was able then to become a Combat Life Saver. That was my introduction to healthcare and I am grateful for the experience.
