Hello! I am a kind and outgoing caregiver who loves spending time to get to know my clients. I have experience caregiving with all ages and I adore working with all the wonderful people I've been able to meet through caregiving.

My Name is Quincy and I'm 27 years old. I have grown to love helping people, everyday I look for something I can do to better another's day! If I could get paid everyday to do so, then that's a job for me. I'm A Hard worker, quick learner, and I absolutely care about each individual I come across!

I've been a caregiver for 6+ years! Yaaayy! I enjoy helping clients get their independence back and working one-on-one with someone and developing a relationship with a client. I am creative and think fast on my feet during emergency situations to provide the assistance my clients need. I like tasks such as cooking and baking for someone, helping with errands/shopping, conversing and participating in activities with my client. Being able to be person centered fulfilling someone's requests and catering to an individual's likes and dislikes is my main goal.

i enjoy working with the elderly, helping them met their needs and assisting them with basic care. i believe there is much to be leaned from the elderly and i believe in giving back in a way to give toward the future. i am most proud of having been a stay at home dad, taking care of my two boys, and helping prepare them for the future and learning the importance of taking care of others. i love the outdoors, exercizing, spending time with my family, watching the red sox, and taking care of my home.

I became a caregiver back in 2013 during college. I worked at a group home, where I served adolescents with unique and challenging disabilities. I enjoyed my job because no matter what challenges I faced, I was always able to learn more and adapt to the needs of each resident. A good caregiver does what needs to be done, but a great character invests in the individuals and makes adjustment suited for them. I take pride in being a great caregiver. At this point in my life, one of my greatest accomplishments is graduating from Western Oregon University in June 2016 with a Bachelor's of Science in Community Health Education. Currently, I'm retaking a few classes with a goal to apply for Accelerated Nursing Programs next Fall.

I have been told by many that I'm a leader that inspires others around me to do the best job possible, and lead by example. I am able to think critically, quickly.

I enjoy helping people in any way I can, I work hard, but have boundaries as to what I should to physically in terms of weight and duration.
