About Candy

I am very compassionate and patient, I also always go above and beyond to make sure I am the best caregiver I can be. I have a younger brother who was born with cerebral palsy and I always took care of him without feeling like I had to, that's when I knew what I was meant to do with my life. I started working in a nursing home when I was 16 and and then switched to home health care and I have enjoyed caring for others ever since.

Helped my client get out of bed, helped with personal hygiene, bathing, fixed meals and light house keeping. Spent time with her talking, doing her nails and hair for her. Checked her blood sugar and made sure she took her medicine.

I am completely blown away by how lucky I am to have found you! I've never seen my mother respond so quickly or easily to anyone. I am breathing easier knowing you are going to be part of her care team!
