About Cristy

I am a fun loving caregiver. I strive to give my best effort to provide excellent care and bring joy and laughter to their lives. It's my passion to assist the elderly to stay in their homes. I enjoy being around the elderly but didn't have grandparents close to me so it's been fun to sort of join families. What I enjoy the most is when I feel I have formed an connection with my clients. My greatest accomplishments has been having long term clients. I recently witnessed a client be able to stay in her home and pass at the age of 102

I'm a compassionate hard working person. (CNA) I love helping people, especially the elderly. Helping with their laundry, light cleaning, cooking, running errands, taking walks, exercising when needed and most importantly reminding them of their medications. I enjoy doing this because I like to see them happy, smiling and comfortable every time. I've been caring for people in their private homes for over 14 years. I have good references to show and a background check to whoever find the interest working with me. Thanks.

What makes me a good home care aide is my dedication to what I do. I give my best to serve / help my client in any way I can. I became a home care aide because I want to work with and help seniors. I believe that taking care of them is like taking care of my own mother. Aside from having the chance to serve / help seniors, what I like about being a home care aide is its flexible work schedule. Seeing my client satisfied and happy with what I do for him / her is a personal achievement I am proud of.
