About Nancy

I'm a very caring, compassionate and loving person. I'm patient, attentive, dedicated, dependable, trustworthy, respectful, responsible, and confident. I provide quality care with dignity. My passion is to work with the elderly and/or other ages and needs. I just enjoy people. I like to make them smile. I do everything from heart. My grandmother is why I changed from teaching to caregiving. She's my idol. She passed away four years ago at age 105. We provided each other with conversation and companionship. I helped her with needs without interfering with her independence. I made her smile even on her worst days just by going to visit and especially when I brought my twins. I truly miss her today and always. I enjoy working with all people and especially where I have one-on-one interaction. I work well with everyone and believe that all must work together as a unit to provide the best services and care to the person in need. I have worked with the many facets of aging; dementia and alzheimer's to name a couple, as well as, many others. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day from routine care to cooking, housekeeping, and laundry to going on errands/shopping and appointments. While I've accomplished many things in my life from earning a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physical Education/Coaching, Master of Arts in Education and Certified Nurses Aid Certificate, to 9 1/2 years Caregiving experience, to Motherhood of my twins to my most recent success , if you will, moving from Wisconsin to Arizona. I still feel my biggest achievement is yet to come.

$15.00/hour · Phoenix, AZ

Four years ago I retired from nursing. Recently, I moved to Phoenix Arizona to be near family. I have one married daughter in Phoenix where I presently reside, and another married daughter in Peoria. My daughter and son-in-law in Peoria have one daughter and are currently expecting their second child. Prior to moving here, my most recent pertinent work experience was as a homecare non-medical provider to an senior woman in her Kansas home. Though hired as "non-medical care provider" much of my assistance with this woman did revolve around her medical needs as she was an end-stage cancer patient, as well as diabetic. I helped manage her medication schedule, transportation and ensuring she went to medical/doctor appointments. I also monitored her daily health needs such as blood pressure, blood sugars, etc. I would like to care for you or a loved one in your home, and assist you with some of your care needs. I am willing to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparations, exercise/physical therapy programs, transportation and occasional errands or grocery shopping. I enjoy reading, baking, music, walking and spending time outdoors, as well as spending time with my family. I would be delighted to come work for you! --Freida McMahon
