About Samantha

Growing up I really didn't think much of what I wanted to do with my life. Well that all changed after my neighbor who was an older guy asked If I would help me with light house duties and errors to earn a little extra money. I feel in love with what I was doing and decided that I want to go for my CNA. Now 4 years later, I am still a CNA and absolutely love my job as well as everything that comes with it! I am married to a wonderful husband and a mother of 3 children. I am very loving caring and out going. I do my best to cheer my residents up when they are sad as well as try to get a good laugh in to keep me from going completely insane. I love spending one on one time being able to talk and get an understanding of everything my residents have been through. I get really attached with my residents and develop a family like relationship. I am very sure you will be very happy and content with me and the care I provide. As well as he/she will be very happy that I am someone that has a heart of pure care.
