Summary
I am a reliable worker, with a background in care for not only children of various ages, but of the elderly as well. I am trustworthy in communication with all ages, and a people person. I have always been an extrovert, very friendly, and loved not only working with people, but helping and working for the benefit of other people. I’m very empathetic and love to help and serve people. Throughout my years as a caregiver for many ages, I have learned skills such as communication, empathy, and ensuring my patients are happy. I am excellent at keeping a place clean and well organized. I know the basics of meal prepping and I am knowledgeable on health guidelines and regulations.
