Avelicia S.

$22.00/hour · Colorado Springs, CO

I am a compassionate and gentle woman. I have experience in several realms: assisting in care for my grandma for several years before she passed, working with high school special needs students, as well as being previously certified as a CNA, and later on EMT. I made a career change to IT, so I didn't maintain my certs, but I still have a deep passion and yearning to help and serve others. I appreciate being able to make a difference in someone's life by giving care and companionship. Whether it be simply with my presence for conversation, or for assistance with daily tasks in the home, to assistance with self care. Being a caregiver has always held a big place on my heart, and you or your loved one will be in great hands if I get the privilege of caring for them.

My name is Gina Martinez I was born and raised in Pue lo Colrado. What got me interested in doing Home Care is watching my grandmother suffer from ALZHEIMER'S. We had the most kind, caring, compassionate , caregiver who was extremely helpful and very important to our family. She became extremely important to our family. Just seeing how helpful and needed she was to our family I decided I was going to help out elders from that day on, and ever since, I necame.a Care Provider and i love my job. Most of my clients have become my very bestfriend, and I am super close to them. I truly love each and everyone of my clients. They have become Such a big part of my life that I wouldn't change my job for anything. I wake up actually excited and happy to see and spend time with my clients. That is why I became a Caregiver because it truly has fulfilled my life tremendously in every which way and I beleive this is my calling from God.
