About Lakesha

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a compassionate, dependable caregiver with over 20 years of experience serving in the United States military, bringing discipline, reliability, and a strong sense of duty into my caregiving role. My military background has equipped me with the ability to remain calm under pressure, follow detailed care plans, and respond quickly to changing medical and emotional needs. I provide daily support that includes assistance with activities of daily living, personal care, medication reminders, mobility assistance, meal preparation, and maintaining a safe, structured environment. I am attentive to physical and mental health changes and communicate effectively with healthcare providers and family members to ensure continuity of care. Certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED

Lakesha has been taking care of my mom for about a year now. She is an absolute angel. She is a veteran of our country, has a college degree, and is the warmest and kindest person ever. We hit the jackpot with her, and I truly thank God for sending her to us. Our stress levels have gone down so much ever since she started caring for my mom (who has dementia). Other facts about Lakesha (based on extensive interactions with her): She is dependable, on time, very caring and kind, experienced, and attentive. She always arrives with not just a good demeanor but an exceptional personality which includes cheerfulness and compassion. Besides driving my mom and taking her to the grocery store, she has helped with light cleaning and does an excellent job helping my mom with jobs that are too hard for her. For example, she has made her floors shine! Lakesha is a God fearing woman, and she is very trustworthy. I trust her wholeheartedly.
