I'd describe my personality as very outgoing, always upbeat, and very compassionate. I like caring for seniors because I grew up around seniors. It gives me joy to know I can make a difference in an elderly person's life. Seniors usually have great stories about their lives through the years and I love to listen and learn. I'm looking for a job that allows flexibility, is close to home a safe and secure setting. I started caring for seniors Summer of 2007. In my spare time, I like to read, I like crafts, sewing, and taking care of my many houseplants. One thing you should know about me is I'm a very dedicated person. My skills include Bathing, cooking, Laundry.
Charma was recommended to us by a work friend who had used her for years (retired executive of a large insurance company downtown Columbus) for his wife's care at home. We hired her during the summer of 2024 to provide care for my father, a retired engineer, during a very difficult stage of his life - he had severe dementia and was also experiencing incontinence in his final months of life. She brought warmth, compassion, and a strong sense of dignity to his care, which our family deeply appreciated. Additionally, she was so knowledgeable about the medical aspects of his care, that she served as my mentor and educated me! Charma was gentle, patient, and kind with my dad, even when his condition made communication and physical care especially challenging. She handled my father's agitation like an absolute pro. I felt like he was in excellent hands when I was at work. I had absolutely no doubts he was safe and enjoying a wonderful time with Charma. She paid attention to him and talked with him and watched TV alongside him and was an excellent companion to him. She made meals and took care of everything! I would absolutely recommend Charma to other families needing compassionate assistance for their loved one(s). I paid her much more than she is asking for (she is very humble) and the care she provides is worth every penny above other caregivers. If you would like to speak with me, please reach out to Charma and she can share my cell number with you for a personal conversation. She was outstanding. I wish her the best as she builds her business. Don't miss out on an opportunity to hire her before her schedule is full with other clients. - Michele S., Galena, OH
