About Bertha

Hi! My name is Bertha and I'm 47yrs. old. I began working with Adults who are mentally & physically challenged when I was 20. I knew right away that it was the field I wanted to be in, because of the way I felt at the end of each day. In a word, I felt fullfilled. Like what I was doing made a difference. I have experience as a certified DSP (Direct Service Provider) in a Workshop setting and also as a PSW (Personal Service Worker) in home settings. I assist Clients with personal needs, help them with everyday life skills, Transport Clients including those in wheelchairs and have been told that I'm great company and funny.... I feel like these skills and my experience would be a great fit for anyone who needs help. I'm reliable & trustworthy and can provide you with many references for both my work ethics & my character.

    I love taking care of the elderly because when my grandparents were alive I would help my mother take care of them, this is how I realized this was my calling. Caring for my grandparents gave me first-hand experience in caregiving. When I take care of others, I am reminded of my grandparents and hope to provide the same love and care for others.
