About Shannon

I have always had a strong passion for helping people especially the elderly. I started 17 years ago and have plenty of references. My personal achievement would have to be that I was able to achieve my dream of being able to care for people and treat them like they are family.

I've been a caregiver for over 15 years and I love helping people and listening to their life stories. I'm very patient and elderly people love me. I'm very good with dementia, Alzheimer's, I have a lot of experience with both. I'm pretty good at cooking. I'm very reliable. I enjoy making you smile.

I became a caregiver because I have seen so many elder people without family support that I wanted to be the next best thing. I love the connection you get with the clients. It feels genuine. I'm proud of finishing high school and knowing where I wanna go in life. I am a wife and a mother of three. I, one day wanna open my own business helping the youth in my community with daily emergency support.
