I'm an honest, reliable, friendly person. I'm easy going, and tend to make friends easily. Patient and level headed. I took care of an elderly couple for 4.5 years. I began as an aide for the wife who has since passed and continued on with husband afterward. She required someone to be with her 24/7 to serve and supervise meals, monitoring of her taking her medications properly, assistance with transferring from wheelchair to commode in the restroom, and transferring in and out of bed. Encouragement and guidance with light exercise/PT, and keeping records of things done on my shift. I was also happy to provide companionship and try to keep her engaged and active. My friend was 98 with very limited mobility, along with other health issues. I also provided companionship and meals for her elderly husband with whom I stayed on after her passing. My most recent client of 2 years was 85 female, needing help with bathing and similar needs as the previous.

Nikki worked with us for many years taking care of our mother. She was a positive and compassionate caregiver. Nikki was a pleasure to have in our home providing personal care and handling all basic needs such as feeding, bathing, hygiene, cleaning and entertainment with more love and compassion than a normal human being. Not only is she good at what she does but also makes it a point to keep trying and learning to make sure that she doesn't fall short of anything. She is a productive individual who is exceptionally skilled at being supportive and encouraging to her clients. She brings with her a knowledge and desire to help people and to better a person's life. She spent hours taking care of our mother both physically and emotionally. she was willing to do whatever was needed and what was asked of her. Her dependability was exceptional. It is without any doubt, I am positive that Nikki would be a great caretaker in anyone's home.
