About kaelyn

I have always been that nurturing caring person. Trying to figure out what was the best career for myself, nursing was the key. I becoming a caregiver to give back to my elders. I wasn't able to see my grandfather on his last day due to my young age that the time. So I told myself, how can I give back? Well, I'm giving back by being a great caregiver like the ones who cared for my grandfather. I strive to be the best, and nothing less. The best part about being a caregiver is being able to sit there and hearing the stories they have. I love being a caregiver, and I'm proud that I choose this path.

I enjoy the ability to help others, to gain knowledge form the elderly. I became a caregiver a few years after my grandmother was put in a nursing home. I saw the love and compassion she received and this inspired me to want to help the elderly and disabled. I got my CNA when I was 18 and my EMT when I was 20. I am proud to say I have helped an number of sweet people and they in turn have taught me so much. As a mother of two children, I want to show them that loving, caring and respect of all ages, ethnicity will make this world a better place.

I'm Kelly! I am a very easy going and sweet caregiver. I am super reliable and great at what I do. I have been doing this for 4 years and i have experience in many areas such as dementia care, Parkinson's disease, colostomy care, immobility and bed bound, lift assist, cooking , cleaning and pet care. My grandmother is the reason I became a caregiver, her dementia inspired me to want to help others the way I want her to be helped. Now that I can't help her as much I get a genuine fulfillment from helping other peoples mother's and grandparents it makes me feel like I have a huge purpose. I am very proud of all the skills I have learned in this field and I am in nursing school trying to further my education.
