I became a Caregiver because I care for people and want to help them. I saw the need of caregivers when my parents became older. They were independent but still needed some additional care which I was able to give them. Because of this I decided to pursue a career in Caregiving. I have been a Caregiver over 5 years now and have met many nice people and have had the pleasure of taking care of them. I love being a Caregiver because I feel like I am helping someone. This help may be as little as sitting and listening to them or cooking, sorting their meds, etc. Just helping them through their day! I feel I go above and beyond the call of duty. I am very dependable and trustworthy. People always tell me I have such a happy disposition and it's true. I wake up in the morning with a smile on my face ready for the day. The clients I have and have had say I bring joy to their home and appreciate my work ethic. A little something about me: I was born and raised in the Houston area. I have two grown daughters and two grandsons that I am very close to. My dad passed away in March 2013 but I still have my mom and a sister. We all enjoy having family time. I love teapots and have a collection of them. I LOVE to cook and it is my passion. I get compliments all the time and am always trying new recipes. I would love to be able to take care of your loved ones and look forward to hearing from you.
