I am 30years old with over 10 years of professional caregiving experience. I became a caregiver because helping others is truly an amazing feeling. I am very dedicated to my clients and their well-being. I am dependable. I am very respectful of people and their emotions. I have a habit of putting others first, which I find to be good. I have a lot of patience for people, everything takes time. I love to organize and to keep things in a simple and easy way to find. Cooking is always fun especially finding new ways to keep it healthy. I believe communication is key, wether it's just listening to a story or instructions they are just as important. Making sure every situation is a safe environment, safety is number one. I just really love to be a part of someone's life and to make a positive impact on their life's when most needed. It brings me joy to help others.

I belong to the Elders' Guild in Berkeley and fell in love with the attendees. I got the idea about being a Caregiver to sweet people such as these. I am a semi retired Certified Yoga Teacher/Holistic Health Coach/Massage Therapist . I also had a small business making and delivering Lunch...I'm a great cook and very organized and neat. Also I love to laugh and have fun as well! I am not a nurse but am very capable and would love to serve with talents gained by raising two sons and keeping a beautiful household with delicious food! Also I have a darling Bichon/Poodle that would bring you much joy.
