About Patricia

I feel that I am a great caregiver because I have over 15 years of experience and I truly do care about people but I especially enjoy the elderly population. I believe that I became interested in being a caregiver back in the '90's because of my dear grandmother that I miss so very much. I learned a lot from her - she had great wisdom! I have also learned a lot from those that I have cared for and I very much enjoy hearing about their families and life stories. I just love helping people, plain and simple. :)

I am a CNA and an Optimal Aging caregiver \"Diamond Partner\" I charge $25-$30 an hour. I am willing to work shifts of 2-4 hrs. I have a background check on hand. I started caring for my grandma, who had a stroke after my grandpa died. She needed help with pet care, reading, driving, cleaning up, cooking etc. Later I went to college and volunteered with a local senior care facility where I helped with personal and physical needs as well as companionship. I have worked with many Alzheimer and dementia clients as well as clients with physical and mental challenges. With my clients I have a patient and calm demeanor. Working with people to accomplish the things important to them is important to me. I have worked with people over the years who have different abilities, religions, personal preferences and ages. Each person is unique and I try to be respectful and honoring to them all. I am available to work in the Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, and Mercer Island areas.

My favorite part of being a caregiver is developing close relationships with the people I'm assisting. I love getting to know each individual and getting to support them in any way I can. I have been told I'm hardworking, kind, calm, patient, and dependable. I have experience assisting people with a wide range of needs and medical conditions. I'm currently in school (pre-nursing), and I'm looking for part-time caregiving work. Send me a message if you'd like to talk more!
