About Cindy

I became a caregiver to help my mother take care of my grandmother starting when I was in Jr. High School. My grandmother was always calling my name so naturally I went. My mom would say thank you. One day she bought me a small gift. I asked her what it was for. She said you always help without be asked or saying a thing. I told her it was something I enjoyed doing and no one had to asked me I was brought up knowing it was the right thing to do. My grandmother was in a wheelchair. When my mom became ill I took care of her. After she passed away I was left with an empty feeling . I thought it was because she was gone and yes, that was part of it. But it took me about a year to realize I was feeling this way because I missed taking care of someone. I had found my calling. I really enjoying helping people!! I

    If you're looking for help then this is probably a very stressful time for you and/or your loved one. There is major transition going on -- and some of it might not be welcome. I want to add to your ease, decrease your burden, make this transition easier. You're looking for someone to entrust yourself or your loved one with. You probably want someone you can depend on, who's on time, reliable, conscientious, experienced, dedicated, professional, competent. I am. And I imagine you also want someone who has "soft-skills": intuitive, compassionate, deep listener, empathetic, honest, considerate, patient. That's me too. Put them together and that means you or your loved one will receive care from someone who can hold compassionate space, listen deeply, respond to needs, while also providing competently for health and daily tasks. I excel at being observant, seeing what's needed, and handling it. In addition, I respect the people I work with and talk to them as adults and people, not as incompetent, invisible or childlike. It's a lovely dance to find the balance of inter/dependent, and try not to figuratively "step on toes" finding it. I am a certified Holistic Healthcare Practitioner, which means I can often share healthy advice, while also working within the parameters of your current medical team. With me, you or your loved one is in excellent hands, combined with a compassionate heart, and a bright mind. I consider myself more than a care-taker or care-giver -- I'm a "care-empowerer."

    I have worked as a Caregiver for 25 yrs. I was a Transportation Driver for 8 years. In 2008-2009 worked as Lincare Oxygen Manager in New Mexico. I have a heart for Seniors and love to hear their stories. No one should have to be alone when health is declining especially if families can't be available.
