About Marie

I am patient, can listen and adapt to different personalities. I enjoy understanding how a patient feels and putting myself in their place. I wanted to be a caretaker to help as many people as I can. I love meeting new people and helping out wherever I can. I enjoy being a companion to a patient and helping out any way I can. A personal achievement I am proud of is when my patient was angry at me for 2 months because she has Alzheimer's and thought I had locked her out, I apologized many times everyday until she realized she had been angry for no reason and apologized. I was very happy for not becoming angry even when she was yelling and apologizing many times although I hadn't done anything wrong. My ability to understand where she was mentally helped me to grow and care even more about her.

I am new to Carelinx but not new to caregiving. I helped care for my mother for almost five years until she passed away at 90. I always enjoyed doing the extras that made her feel better and brightened her days. I also helped to raise my two grandchildren since my son became a single father when they were very young.

Hi! My name is Sam, I'm in my thirties and from the NKY area. I work full time at a bank, but I've always had the goal to start a business & now we have Maid Mommas! In my spare time I write, camp, enjoy going to concerts, and spending time with my family and friends! My daughter makes my world spin we explore and see what excitement we can find and if we can't find any... we make our own fun! As a busy, on-the-go mom, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to keep a home clean and organized amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. Juggling my family's schedules and household tasks has made me an expert in efficiency and attention to detail. I bring this experience into my cleaning services, understanding the value of a spotless, stress-free home where you can relax and unwind. Whether it's a quick tidy-up or a deep clean, I'm here to take the load off your shoulders, so you can focus on what matters most--your family! [?]
