As the eldest sibling, nurturing comes naturally to me. I have been in health care since college but it wasnt until a family member was in need of a care provider that I discovered my purpose in the medical field. Since then, I have continued my education for the last 10 years and in return have gained excellant skills in senior care, specialty care, palliative care, hospice/end of life care. My ability in providing superior care goes in hand with developing a strong relationship with my clients that know they can depend and trust the care and services I provide. I am absolutely compassionate about being a care provider and it deeply fullfills me being apart of each clients journey to stay at home with individual care, that specifically fits your needs. I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you in further detail about your needs and how I can meet them. Please message me through carelinx and I will get back to you immediately. Thank you for taking the time to read my Bio.

My personality traits consist of being upbeat with a positive outlook on life. I offer companionship and help with everyday chores and health without my client having to compromise their precious time and giving the simplicity of being able to enjoy the companionship that I offer and also of others without the work and tasks of the everyday life hassles getting in the way of you visiting with family and friends. The things that attracted me to being a caregiver were my grandparents who I had the chance to spend a lot of time with as a child and ultimately was blessed to help them through the end stages of life and take the journey along side them. That was when I knew this is where I needed to be. I enjoy being there for those that simply just need an ear or helping hand and those who need someone in their life to get their minds off of the heartbreak of certain everyday life events and disabilities. One personal achievement I can say I'm very proud of and always will be my number one is raising two beautiful healthy children.
