I've been an in-home private caregiver off and on for 30+ years; loving our old folks comes naturally to me. I've also raised children, owned a music store, traveled to other countries (as a caregiver as well) and experienced my own trials in life. I am conscientious and respectful. I am thoughtful of family, always endeavoring to include them in happy "little" events in daily life. I am naturally cheerful, optimistic and encouraging in times of trial (medical rehab comes to mind) while also maintaining a resourceful and responsible attitude to the situation. I am honest with myself and those I work with regard to mistakes; I continue to learn and grow in my profession. Life experiences are my most valuable teachers.
