About Akhona

Experience: 3 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'd describe my personality as a Bubbly person, super organized and I would say I'm quite an outgoing person I like caring for seniors because of the wisdom you receive from them while in the process of doing your job. I love taking care of the elderly because they are so sweet and it just fulfils my heart to be able to assist them in anyway I can. I started caring for seniors when I was very young. I fell in love with taking care of seniors right there and then. Been doing it ever since. In my spare time, I like to Read, listen to music. But honestly I read a lot One thing you should know about me is that I am a very quiet person. I don't drink alcohol or smoke. I'm a very hardworking person. My skills include Cooking as I am a professional chef, I am computer literate and super organized.

Akhona is exceptional, the care she provided to my wife, I can't express my gratitude enough. Her dedication and professionalism positively significantly impacted my wife's life. Her attention to detail, empathy, and commitment to her work did not go unnoticed. She cared for my wife with grace and compassion. The trust I had in her when she looked after my wife allowed me to breathe easier, knowing she is receiving the highest standard of care possible. My wife said Akhona made her feel safe and always had a way of making her smile. She was well prepared and compassionate.  She was courteous, helpful, and thorough in addressing my wife's concerns and needs. Akhona has excellent communication skills and is dedicated to her work. Anyone would be lucky to hire her as a caregiver. In short, Akhona is beyond wonderful.
