About Tammy

I became a caregiver because I have a passion for putting others first, and I enjoy helping the disabled. There are a numerous of things I enjoy about being a caregiver. One of those things is, helping others gives me a sense of meaning and pride. I am proud of maintaining a stable and efficient career in the medical field for twenty-two years. I am the oldest of three therefore, looking and caring after others comes natural to me. I am a very responsible, trustworthy, and organized person. When caring for other residents, I care for them as if they were my own relatives. Above all of the following, I love my job.

    As a Certified Nursing Assistant with nine years of experience, I enjoy getting to know people and contributing to their lives in a positive way. I do not shy away from working with various health issues. Most importantly, I want clients and their families to feel that they have received their money's worth when I have finished for the day. I reside in Seattle and am seeking local clientele. References from current and former clients are available upon request.

    Hi I'm Ateka, I've been a caregiver for 10yrs. Working as a caregiver is very fulfilling as I enjoy seeing my clients happy and healthy. I believe that you should always take care of those who can't help themselves. In my country of Ethiopia I took care of senior citizens. We believe that the elderly should never suffer nor go into Nursing Homes to be alone. My hope is one day all people who need assistance will be able to get the quality care they need and deserve.
