About Jay

There are several characteristics that make an amazing caregiver. I'm patient, compassionate, attentive, dependable, and trustworthy. I've wanted to be a Nurse since the age of 5. My motivation is deeply personal. I lost my grandmother at the age of 20. There is no one that I loved more than my grandmother. It was such a joy to sit with her daily to hear of all her tales of when she was younger. When she became terminally ill, I took on full responsibility of caring for her. My skills were definitely put to the test. After her passing, I made it my mission to help the helpless and comfort the sick. I have a deep affinity for caring for others, and spend 3 days a week volunteering at local Senior centers. This is my passion. Upon request, I will provide professional references and a background check from FDLE. Also note, I have reliable transportation and insurance. I look forward to providing you or your loved one compassionate care in the comfort of your own home.

I am a God Fearing Christian woman who just wants to love and take care of people. I have experience in caring of the elderly and was a standby nurse for the military. I also have a Masters Degree in Russian Language, Literature and Philosophy and was a school teacher where I taught middle school children Literture. My first experience of taking care of the elderly started when I was 11 where I took care of my grandfather and grandmother that were very ill. I also worked in a Child Daycare Center in Salavat, Russia for about 1 year. In 2008 I took care of my father who had a heart disease and later died in Sept of 2010. I am a very caring person and love to comfort people that are in need. I want them to feel special, wanted and needed at all times. I also feel that I am very loyal and responsible and will go out of my way to bring a smile into someones Life.
