About Grace

Hi, I'm Grace The pandemic has shifted life for everyone, as you know, and my shift toward being a caregiver has roots from my personal experience and personal enjoyment of caring for older adults. I gave live-in care for my late grandmother, who had Alzheimer's, from 2017-2019, and I have always enjoyed being around the wisdom of people in their later years. My strengths of empathy, listening, and positivity lead me to be a person that people generally gravitate toward. I am service-oriented and enjoy getting to know people while providing them with care, and I would love to provide care to you or a family member!

What makes you a great caregiver? I genuinely care about other people regardless differences and challenging characteristics; I don’t judge people and give them their privacy as well as take care of them with the best care and to their liking and comfort needs. I make sure things are done right and don’t take shortcuts, I’m honest, loyal, and compassionate towards other people. Why did you become a caregiver? I became a caregiver because I realized I listened to peoples needs and wanted to help improve the quality of their lives. I’m good at taking orders and encouraging people to do their best, to bring the best in them out. What do you like about being a caregiver? I enjoy when someone is content with the quality care I provide them. I enjoy taking people’s health into my hands and being successful, by keeping them at their optimal health. What is a personal achievement you are proud of? I am proud to have become a well-informed healthcare professional that knows how to care for any individual with any kind of condition due to all my experience and skills obtained from training.
