I am a caring person who enjoys helping others. I have worked with children and adults with disabilities for 35 years. I experience joy watching people grow and enrich their lives. I believe an older person has a lot of wisdom to share. I would treat them with dignity and respect that they deserve.

I became a Private Caregiver when I realized, it is very rewarding making a difference in one's life on a daily basis. What I like about being a Private Caregiver is the one on one personal care and bond you develop while assisting to live a healthy lifestyle. One of the personal achievement I am proud of is the connection and relationship I develop with the senior and his or her family. The personal attention and dedication I give to each and every client is priceless. I love what I do!
