I have knowledge of the body function, pathology, and anatomy. I have 17 years of professional caregiving. I love what I do because I know I am making a difference in people and families lives. I find gratification in knowing that I'm appreciated and needed. Regular continuing education classes gives me new styles of caring. My licenses are up to date in the State of Washington. Everyone requires respect, dignity, kindness, patience, and love. I uphold the word integrity because that's what I expect from others. A description of myself would be hardworking, honest, reliable, and dependable. Finding enjoyment through art, outdoors, games, baking, cooking, crafts, and gardening are the things I love. Family and friends are very important to me because I find pleasure through their company. If you are looking for that special fun loving caregiver for your loved one feel free to contact me.

Hello I tend to be more on the positive side like to see the person smile. Getting to know the person listening to the person telling me about the amazing life. I had a brother who passed from cancer and a mother who passed from dementia. After caring and helping both mother and brother I felt very compassionate for others. Spending time with the person listening to the life stories or experiences they've gone through. The person in my care having a Positive experience while in my care.
