I'm a caring, fun, loving and compassionate caregiver/nursing aide. I've cared for children, teens, adults and seniors on a medical and non-medical levels for over 20 years. I've held a title as a sitter, a direct support professional (DSP), and a geriatric aide. As a sitter I've ensured the safety and well-being of the children I care for by serving healthy meals, assisted with academics, provided safe transportation, followed up with good hygiene and more. Being a DSP, I assisted individuals with a developmental/intellectual disabilities and mental health. Teaching and redirecting life skills and integrating them within their community, medication management and more. Caring for the elderly, I've aided with Activities of daily living (ADL's)/personal care, medication administration/reminders, transportation, offered companionship to name a few. Knowing that I've made someone else's life easier, comfortable and happy, it has always been a pleasure of mine caring for others.
