Experience: 5 yrs
I am experienced caregiver of children, individuals with disabilities and seniors. With over 5 years of experience in adult and senior care, I'm passionate about providing compassionate support to those who need it. I believe strongly in the ability of a senior/ elder being able to age gracefully in the setting of their own choice. My experience includes keeping a routine and schedule and having clear communication with family, loved ones, and doctors on the clients needs. I have always considered myself to be an advocate for those under my care. I provide various services, including live-in care, transportation, personal care, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and medical management. I communicate with families using their preferred method, offering regular updates. I am patient, friendly, CPR certified and comfortable with pets. My friends describe me as easy going, open-minded and caring. I became a caregiver to support families and positively impact lives.
Letter of Recommendation for Ms. Vanessa R. It is my pleasure to recommend Vanessa R. for her exceptional service as a live-in companion caregiver for my grandmother during the last year and a half of her life. As my grandmother’s dementia progressed, she required constant supervision to ensure her safety. She could no longer be left alone due to risks such as forgetting a lit cigarette or leaving food unattended on the stove. During this challenging time, Vanessa moved into our home and became an integral part of our family’s caregiving team. Vanessa provided daily care from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. while I was at work, with my mother and I covering the remaining hours. What stood out most about Vanessa was her extraordinary patience and creativity. Rather than becoming frustrated with my grandmother’s repetitive conversations, she found ways to turn them into lighthearted games, keeping my grandmother engaged and at ease. This ability to bring joy and dignity to difficult moments was a gift to us all. Her responsibilities included compassionate companionship, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. She carried out each of these tasks with reliability, kindness, and genuine care. More importantly, she offered my grandmother comfort, dignity, and a sense of safety during her final years. I am deeply grateful for Vanessa’s dedication and wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy, compassionate, and skilled caregiver. Sincerely, Roy
