About Me

During a recession in my country, I came to the United States and I had a lot of financial responsibility. I always loved taking care of others and I become a nanny. After many years as a nanny, I decided to work with the elderly. I try to make my clients comfortable and happy, and their needs become my needs. Just by looking, I can tell if my client is not well. I have empathy for my clients. I try to live in their world and put myself in their shoes. I am very good at what I do and I can do just about anything for my client. I go the extra mile to make my clients feel good. I live very close to a river so I like to sit out and enjoy it. In my spare time, like boating, water sports, and reading.

Recommendations

Sandra was a caregiver for my daughter from age 3, and for my son from birth until he was about 14 years old. She lived with us for the first year, and then switched to working hourly. She would arrive before my wife and I left for work, and stay until one of us returned home at the end of the day. I appreciated that she was flexible and able to accommodate our schedules. We were so happy to have Sandra in our lives. She is a wonderful cook and prepared meals for all of us. She did the laundry and shuttled the kids to their activities. Basically, she did everything from A to Z. She is very responsible and conscientious. Though she hasn't been caring for our children since 2013, we continue our relationship with her. When our daughter comes home from college, she always make a point to see Sandra and our children feel like they are aunt and uncle to Sandra's grandson. Though I know Sandra as a caregiver for our children, I have no hesitation in recommending her as a caregiver for seniors as well. I've seen how respectful she is and if my dad lived close by, I would hire her in an instant to care for him.

We are most pleased to recommend Sandra without hesitation or qualification. She is an extremely responsible, highly skilled, and very knowledgable caregiver with a great deal of experience who cared for our mother on a part-time basis from September 2012 through April 2013. Our mother was 99 and in need of 24/7 care, which included taking her to doctor appointments, administering medication and oxygen on an as-needed basis, cooking, and getting her to eat when she had no appetite. She also made sure to get her to do her exercises, helped her with bathing and toileting, and engaged her in conversation and activity when possible. Sandra is a "take charge" person who is committed to taking full care of her patients yet preserving their dignity at all times. She genuinely cares for her patients and because of the level of responsibility she is willing to take for them, they feel safe with her. Consequently, we always felt safe when she was working. Additionally, Sandra managed the other caregivers on the case. No task was too much for Sandra; if additional help was needed, she was there. If something required more than one person, she was there.
