About Me

My name is Andrea and I was born in Belize City. I arrived in the United States 19 years ago. Initially when I arrived, I worked as a nanny. After that, I decided I wanted to go back to school and that's when I received my Certified Nurse Aide training. I worked in a nursing home for a little bit. I took care of the patients and helped with showers, dressing, mobility, and taking them to activities or physical therapy. After the nursing home, I started working one-on-one with private patients. I like to help my patients dress nicely because I find it makes them feel good about themselves. I like to make them feel that they can still be themselves as much as possible. I have been doing this for 11 years now and this is where my heart is. Most of my time is spent working but when I am not with my clients, I like to spend time with my kids, do things around the house, and go out to see a movie and dinner.

Recommendations

Andrea was an amazing part-time caregiver to my mother for a year ending in late February 2022. She is equal parts in-charge and receptive to directions; and she was both gentle and persuasive with my mom. It gave me and my mother so much peace of mind to know she was there. She took care of my mother’s every need, and she is smart and capable — preparing shopping lists of needed items, noticing and managing things needing attention around the home, and most importantly taking note of my mom’s conditions and needs and sharing it all with me since I was managing my mother's care. We couldn’t have made a better decision than hiring Andrea.

Andrea took care of my mom for 5 years. We went through many, many people for my mom and finally decided in three wonderful ladies, Andrea being one of them. Andrea was just so great with my mom. She was very protective and always made sure everything was taken care of and was just right. My mom was totally in bed during the time Andrea took care of her and she just did it all very gracefully. She treated my mom as if she was her own mother. Anyone that visited my mom would always comment on how good she looks and how well cared for she was. Andrea is very outspoken and would be the advocate for my mom. She always made sure she had everything she needed for my mom. Andrea is a very caring person and very reliable. In all the years she was with us, she never missed a shift. She always kept a positive attitude no matter what the situation was. It was just a pleasure having someone like her caring for my mother. I am still in touch with her and her family and I hope she gets a nice family to work with. They would be very happy and lucky to have her.

Andrea took care of my grandmother for about five or six years. She was in charge of all of my grandmother's needs and everything around the house. Andrea is a very proactive woman and just incredibly dedicated. If there was a problem, she would just take care of it right away before it escalated. She really knew her stuff. She developed a great bond with my grandmother and always kept us informed of everything she needed and made sure everything was done. She took her to her doctor appointments and followed up with everything. Andrea is a take-charge person. Because of Andrea, I think my grandmother lived longer than what the doctors expected. If you have Andrea with your family, you can't go wrong -- she will handle everything with love, care and dedication.
