About Maria

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have a huge passion for caring for others, especially the elderly. I worked for a company called AHRC, where I took care of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I have also cared for my father after he had a stroke in 2003. Not only did it restrict his independence but his condition Diminished his pride. I took it Upon myself to be my father's caregiver. He was scheduled for haircut appointments every two weeks because grooming is very important. I would take him to the movies every so often. Lunch dates, which he loved. Over all, I made sure that he was happy. Needless to say, this is not just quick money. To be a caregiver, you must have passion when caring for others. You need to be patient Because it's not always easy to be as vulnerable and allow others to care for you. If I can make someone happy and feel joy in their heart while in my care, Then I have done my job! Rest assured, your loved ones will be in the best of care!

Maria is without a doubt a five star provider! She takes charge and jumps right in to every task our senior mom asks of her and is able to handle multiple tasks. Maria has a proactive work ethic, is assertive and at the same time genuine, kind and nurturing. She is patient in dealing with a person with hearing loss as well. Additionally, since we as daughters are hiring her, she is a great communicator and takes the time to keep us in the loop on what she is doing for our mom.
