Hello, I am a mom of 4 I have been a CMA for 2 years and my passion is helping others.

Hello,I've been in the home health business for 25yrs. I'm comfortable and familiar with every aspect of care giving . I've never met a stranger a day in my life,I can get along with anyone. I'm a quick study and welcome learning something new everyday.

I genuinely love being able to take care of people and especially the elderly. I have always been very passionate about being there for the elderly and taking care of them as if they're my own grandparents. I have overcome a lot of fear I had with being around new people and new surroundings, and working with the elderly has taught me a lot of life skills, and most importantly being patient. I am a very caring and outgoing person with an amazing personality.

I enjoy working with people and enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoy taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. It is essential that a great caregiver (Myself) feel the desire to want to help. By showing both empathy and compassion, a caregiver will let the person know that they care about them. For instance, they will try and do what they can to help - not because they have to, but because they want to.

I believe what makes me a good caregiver. Is I have alot of patience, hard working, caring and down to earth. I decided to become a caregiver because I love helping others in need. I treat my clients as if they were apart of my family, which is with care and respect. Making my client laugh is my main goal. Laughter is good for the heart. It warmed my heart when a few clients I use to work with told me that they loved me for taking such good care of them. That reassured me that I achieved my goal taking care of them the best I can.

I began my caregiving path as a preschool teacher. I spent 12 years caring for children and 2 of those years teaching kindergarten. After my husband passed away I focused on my children. I began an amazing opportunity in senior living care facility 5 years ago as direct care while studying to get my bachelors degree in psychology, and now work as a case manager for 3 group homes.

My personal achievement has been to provide all of my clients with love and also have the knowledge to take care of my family!

Hello! My name is Bailey Whitehead from Cleburne, TX and I am 21 years old. I am currently a student at Texas A&M University and will be graduating in December 2018, and attending nursing school in January 2019. Although I do not have any professional experience in a workplace, I have cared for family members who have been ill or injured many times. I am a trustworthy and reliable individual with a passion for health care. I particularly find my biggest passion with the elderly and the youth and cannot wait to become a RN to assist those individuals one day. Ever since I was a little girl, I have always loved to take care of those around me and since then, I have never stop. I love getting to know those who are ill ad injured and more about their life. I believe that I am a good companion and can live up to the expectations that family members will have for the care of their loved ones, because I, too, would have high expectations.
