I am a very positive and down to earth person . I love to help people in anyway that I can. I wanted to become a caregiver to fulfill that gap of family members not being around as much and to make my clients feel like they are at ease.

I grew up with a huge family, my mother was a Foster care provider, my dad was a Chief Fireman, I am the youngest of 8children, I grew up watching my mom take care of handicapped children my entire life, I always loved seeing how happy it made her to be able to help someone, even if it were just by giving that child love, I've grown to follow her footsteps and I just love being able to help someone if I can, even if can't make them better health wise, I can help them feel better emotionally, everyone deserves the BEST CARE POSSIBLE, that's why I love doing this job! I'm experienced in all aspects of Nursing, I've done pretty much everything expected, I am Certified in Nursing, I'm in school for Phlebotomy, I worked 15yrs in Dementia Care, as well as Alzheimers. I'm very fun to be around and love the new experiences with each client.

As a Minister it is important to me to live by the Golden Rule, to treat others as you want to be treated. It is an honor & privilege for me to help those who cannot help themselves. Treating all people with kindness and respect is a lost quality in today's society, but it is literally my calling to be a true friend to all. I thought having a high paying career and managing a large firm was my dream until I realized that that was the worlds dream for me. I could not find peace in these types of careers because my calling is to serve others.

A caregiver isn't a job for just anyone. You have to have special characteristics to provide excellent care, I am honest, trustworthy, friendly, punctual, caring, good listener, patient and selfless. My happiness comes from helping others. As I grew up I took care of myself, as a teen I moved in with my grandparents so I could take care of them ever since then it's always been my dream to help others. Also I have worked in nursing homes and it broke my heart to see how residents are cared for. People seem happier in their own homes so if there is something I can do to help them stay in their home I will do it. Through the years I've had several clients, I have never had a client that has not liked me. I am proud to say that I have brought happiness to other people's lives and provided the best care that I could.

I prefer working with people one on one and feel it's the best way to get to know someone, and give care. My favorite people to work with are those with schizophrenia and dementia/Alzheimer's. I've always wanted to be a caregiver in some way. My grandmother was a nurse, and we spent a lot of time together helping others in various ways. She taught me how to give care, and to help others when they need it. I saw what she did, and how it affected other people, and wanted to give that to others myself. I enjoy helping other people.

I have always have had a heart for taking care of people. I actually wanted to go to school for nursing and well I had 3 kids and deciding being at home with them while they were small was more important at the time. I would say I had received most my experience within the last several years. I was able to help take care of a young man with terminal cancer. He was deaf due to the cancer and almost blind. So I had to learn to communicate with him so we could understand each other. I was only able to be with him for 5 months then he passed and I was right there with him as he wanted me to be. I have to say it was the most peaceful thing I have ever seen. Was able to be there to support his family and help with whatever they need during the dying process. Then I was able to take care of my grandmother for a year, she had parkinson's disease and alzheimer's. It was very sad to watch her deteriorate but I wanted to be the one to take care off her. And I wanted to make whatever time she had left the happiest. I am also a Sunday school teacher :) and I also volunteered at a private christian school for a year. And I use to make an income cleaning houses. So I definitely done a little bit of everything :)
