About Joylyn

I am a great caregiver because I have the skills, knowledge and experience to perform the job assigned to me with great dignity and respect. I became a caregiver because I like taking care of elderly people with all their activities of daily living. I like being a caregiver because whatever I do and wherever I go my clients are always proud of me and happy with me. I always say to myself, it is not how you do it, but how they want it to be done. At the end of the day, I am happy when I do a great job and receive compliments from my coworkers, residents, and patients.

I have always taken care of others. As a little girl I was responsible for caring for my grandmother, and to this day I still care for the elderly at a facility near my home. For me the most satisfying experience is being thanked by somebody whom I take care of. I am most proud of my ability to help others. I have worked with many difficult patients and have always remained pleasant. I am very empathetic to the plight of those who need my services. I take pride in being punctual and maintaining a positive, kind attitude.

I love the idea of giving care to someone who otherwise may be unable to care for themselves. My grandfather needed a caregiver himself when I was much younger and my family was unfortunate to have the worst experiences and I'd like to use this opportunity to make someone's experience a lot better and their lives easier.
