About Kathleen

I'm a wife & mother of two teenagers, 15 & 17. I've been a caregiver since 2011. I was a nanny for a few families previously. I started working with seniors after my grandma got sick & needed care. I really appreciated the job they did & how well they cared for her. I've always had respect & admiration for older generations! So I went to CNA school & have worked with some amazing families. God has blessed me & I want to be a blessing to people I help take care of.

My name is Alex and I love animals and enjoy being around people and can help whenever needed what has attracted me to being a caregiver is my grandparents who have Alzheimer's and dementia and learning and working with them has helped me understand more what it is like and how to help I love being a caregiver because it gives me time to help where needed and bond with people and give them a sense of home and things will be okay and a personal achievement about me is being able to communicate and understand others needs when it is hard for them to talk through has taken years of working through with people
