About Nancy

I became a caregiver because I like helping people and want to know I am making a difference in my field of work. I particularly enjoy the senior population. It is very rewarding to know I made an impact on someone's day at the end of each work day. I receive personal satisfaction to know that I have helped someone who may not be able to fully help themselves. What a joy! I am proud of the fact that I can do whatever I put my mind to do. I have done many things throughout my life: received my Bachelor's degree in Accounting and worked as an auditor and received my license as a massage therapist and was self-employed for most of the years I was in practice. I also have been a fitness instructor and have completed certifications in that field. In my 20's and 30's I was a nanny and thoroughly enjoyed the children. Of all the things I have done in my life, I prefer those occupations that are helping those in need. I have found that to be true throughout the different career paths I have taken. In my leisure time, I enjoy walking and playing with my dog, which is a fairly new "hobby" for me. Now I know and understand those that say their pet is a member of the family. She brings joy to my life! I have always been health and fitness minded. I aim to take care of myself and do things to promote my well-being and state of health. I also enjoy my time in women's Bible studies, to share and grow with other women of faith.

    I became a caregiver because I enjoy helping people in need. It is very rewarding helping other people. I have had a CNA license but it has been awhile and I have not had it renewed. I have a Associates Degree in Computer Science. I am a Christian lady with 6yrs. experience in caring for the elderly. I am a very caring and compassionate person. I believe in giving my patients the best of my care. I enjoy reading a good book, watching a good movie and spending time with family and friends. I also like to try and stay in shape.
