I have been a caregiver for over thirteen years, working with adults with mental disabilities as well as the elderly. I love people and thrive in the caregiving role. I am very respectful and kind. I am not overbearing yet very aware of the needs of clients. I am extremely thorough and responsible, have great references, and a real compassion for working with people in need of assistance. I feel the most confident in the role of the caregiver, I know the client is getting the best care possible. I am currently working to expand my range and depth of attending to the needs of the individuals I serve by attending a Holistic Health school that focuses on gentle, non-invasive therapies for a wide variety of physical and emotional healing and well-being including many modalities of massage and energy work.
