About Kathryn

I have been raised and continue practicing kindness and compassion for others. I have a keen sense of being aware of when a person is in need ... whether it be needing a drink/food, companionship, or not feeling well. I am a nurturer by nature and being a caregiver is rewarding for me in more than just monetary. In any job/career I have held in the past, I have been praised on my personal communication skills with others.

PLEASE READ MY PROFILE FIRST!!! I have been a private in home caregiver for over 20 years. I became a caregiver because I love to help people. I love the interaction, the closeness and the level of respect I can give as an outsider. I have plenty of references. I am skilled with Medicare insurance and DME companies to get supplies so patients don't have to pay out of pocket so they can get what they need to stay home. I have worked with doctors and agencies to get care that is needed. My patients become family and I take care of them as such. I have worked with loved ones that have Alzheimer's, Dementia, ALS, and everything in between. I am very good at my job and I do very much take a lot of stress off the family members. I I am very good at my job and care deeply for the people I take care and treat them as I would my own. I have always made sure I am worth what I make. I not only can do the health aspect part of the job but I will also help around the house. I can take you or just run errands for you. My references will tell you what I do not. You may call or text me anytime. 301-992-0370 Have a blessed day! God is Good All The Time!! I have worked doing this most of my life and I have loved and lost some of the most amazing people God has blessed putting in my life. I am not worried about animals, I have become part of most of the families I have taken care and are still in touch with 99% of them today. I do not mind driving and to get to where you are so please do not let that stop you from contacting me. I have had every kind of patient there is with every ailment. And if I can make their days better than my day is better!! My pay depends on hours and job. It is not set in stone. Also, I have had calls from people that have wasted my time. Please don't waste my time. I love what I do and am very good at it, I have plenty of experience and can get anything for my patients. So, when people waste my time it takes away from my patients.

I became a caregiver about 20+ years ago after raising my family. My brother was born with a disability and I seen how gentle and loving my mother was with him. I am proud to say I inherited her passion and caring heart. That is mainly why I chose to become a caregiver so I can give back. I am COVID vaccinated I am honest, reliable and dependable.
