I have the calm and quiet type of demeanor and have been told on several occasions that my voice is very calming. Basically, I get along with everyone. What attracted me to becoming a caregiver is that it's my calling and what I'm passionate about. It comes very naturally for me after being in this profession for over 30 years. What I enjoy about caregiving is how it makes the person I'm caring for feel. My heart is full when they feel like I've done a job well and that's my intention. I love when my clients request me! It means my heart and passions are showing.

I have experience as a CNA and Home Health Aide. I have cared for people of all ages in facilities and in their home. I sincerely believe in treating people as I would like to be treated. You are entrusting me with your vulnerable loved ones in a vulnerable state and I don't take that lightly. If you want to play cards or bake cookies, I'm your gal. If yoy need to run errands or go shopping, I'll do that too.
