Maria’s Bio

I have 15 years of paid experience being a caregiver. The past three years, I took care of an elderly couple that were deaf and had dementia and the husband was incontinent. I lived in their home five days a week 24 hours a day. I love being a caregiver. I believe that our elderly folks deserve the dignity to be taken care of exactly how they would’ve taken care of themselves if they could. I love caring for them as if they were my own family. I love being their friend they’re confident and their companion as well as their caregiver. I have a reference letter. I am excellent at what I do.
