About Tamara

I became a caregiver because I wanted to help others. My grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's disease. What I like most is enteracting with my clients, and getting a welcoming reaction out of my clients and their families. My personal achievement that I'm proud of, is being a child of God. Striving to live in love. I am the most caring person you will ever meet. I don't mind helping others and I absolutely love children.

What makes me a great caregiver is my heart. I have always cared about the well being of others, it makes me happy knowing that I am able to help people. What I like about caregiving is meeting new people, and being able to do all I can to comfort and help. A personal achievement I am really proud of is working with someone with CP. This person was in a wheel chair for a long number of years, this person gave up long ago. I came in and got to help this person and care for them helped with motaviating this person to start exercising and then we started taking small steps, thru out my years of caregiving with this person. I was able to help get this person out of the chair and to start walking again. It made me feel so good to see smiles from my client and the family because of how I dedicated myself to her, I was able to give hope and was able to see my client do somethings on their own. It is definitely a highlight to caregiving.
