About Brandee

I naturally have an urge to help others. Often times I have always placed a high priority on helping other people. Helping and caring for others has always come so natural. I am very patience and understanding. And I want to be an caregiver to brighten others around me days and see the smile on those faces of people I'm caring for will make me feel like I matter and I'm making a difference in the world some way. And because I have always enjoyed helping people it lets me know I am doing the right thing when choosing this career path. Furthermore I actually feel like my biggest achievement is yet to come. I am always looking to achieve more tomorrow than I did yesterday and I'm always striving to improve myself all the time.

I love what I do! I love making a difference in someone's life - if I can make them laugh or smile then I've done my job! If I can get my clients out of the house for shopping, appointments or even lunch then I'm helping them help me! I love making new friends & having everlasting friendships with my clients and their families! For the past 3 years I've been a caregiver for my neighbor's dad (he's 97), I was his morning caregiver (he had round the clock caregiving), I fed him breakfast and lunch, took him to church / bingo every Monday, we did his errands during the week and Fridays we did the library. I really love my job as a caregiver!
