About Cherita

Experience: 30 yrs

Supporting the well-being and independence of seniors is my true passion. With 10 years of professional experience, I bring a calm, patient, and detail-oriented approach to every home. I hold a college degree and maintain current CPR training and First Aid certifications. I am skilled at navigating memory care needs, including de-escalating stressful situations and adapting to changing routines with empathy. Whether I am assisting with daily living tasks or providing companionship, my priority is earning your trust. I communicate through your preferred method, whether that is verbal updates or regular check-ins, to ensure you feel connected and informed. As a reliable caregiver with my own transportation, I am also happy to welcome your beloved pets into our daily routine. I look forward to bringing warmth, professional care, and a sense of comfort into your family's home.
