About Me

Back in Jamaica, I took care of my grandmother who wanted to stay in the comfort of her own house and receive the tender love and care we provided. After that experience, I became a professional caregiver in 2001. I am very jovial and I love interacting with the clients, so they can get to know me and I can get to know them, also. I like taking my clients out for some fresh air or do other activities and meet other people. I am trustworthy and very patient which is the most important factor in caregiving. I am punctual and very reliable. I like my surroundings to be neat, clean, and orderly, and the same applies to my client. I like watching television -- especially, "Wheel Of Fortune" and "Jeopardy." I love to read science fiction books. I also like to go shopping and take a stroll in the park. Cooking is another one of my hobbies.

Recommendations

Marva was a live-in caregiver for my mother-in-law from 2015 to February 2018, when she passed away. My mother-in-law was in her 90s and wanted to stay in her own home. She shocked us all and outlived hospice. Marva was there for her to take care of her activities of daily living. Marva is very dependable and very personable. My mother-in-law was very difficult to get along with and to please, but towards the end you could see that she appreciated Marva and the other aide we hired. My mother-in-law loved Marva's cooking. She kept the house clean and the laundry was always done. She even gave my mother-in-law manicures and pedicures. I certainly would not hesitate to recommend her services.

Marva took care of my dad for about 4 years from 2009-2013. My dad had Parkinson's, neuropathy, and cancer of the eye. I find Marva to be a person of the highest caliber. Aside from being honest and hard working, Marva is extremely easy to get along with. She kept him spotless with got him into the shower every day. She kept him well fed even when he did not want to eat. She also entertained him by singing and joking with him. Also, she kept the house clean and neat. She did the cooking and wash, and even helped me rake leaves and shovel snow. I am sure if anyone hires Marva, they will find her perfect in every way and a joy to have around. Unfortunately, my dad passed away, and I was sorry to see her go. I sincerely hope you will see what I saw in this beautiful person. I recommend Marva with complete and total confidence.
