About Linda
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I love working as a caregiver. Getting to know and care for an elder is very special to me. I have a good sense of humor and enjoy making my clients laugh. I am very respectful, understanding and have a tremendous amount of patience. I have worked with patients who have had Dementia, Alzheimer's and just needed companionship. My time schedule is very flexible. I have 20+ years as a caregiver. I have cared for clients whose age ranged from 30 to 104 years old. Some individuals were in their own home, home of a family member or in an assisted living facility. The duties I have had were companionship, bathing, dressing, personal care, housekeeping, meal preparation, errands, taking the client to appointments, out to eat or just for a ride. My hobby and passion is quilting and hanging out with my quilting buddies. I also love to make barn quilts, like to read and listen to books. Here is to a great day, Linda

Linda had taken care of my 96 year old mom. She is a special caregiver with exceptional knowledge and understanding of seniors needing care. She is dependable, prompt, and honest. She was the highlight of my mom's day and enhanced the quality of her daily life. She enjoys her work, and enjoys bringing cheer, comfort and a high quality of care you would only expect from a family member. She was always willing to do what was needed to be done regarding her care including housework, cooking, and helping my mom with her daily personal care. She is warm and engaging, patient, nurturing and calm. As my mother's needs changed and became more challenging, she was flexible and adapted to her changing situation, never complaining about the extra work or extra hours. There was no task too big for her to undertake. Her attention to one's needs is above and beyond. She has a positive attitude, honest, giving, and nurturing. She blessing to anyone who has the opportunity to hire her.
