Helen Grace’s Bio

Hi! I am Helen. I am a mother of 3 beautiful girls. I have an active certification being a CNA since 2012 by IDPH. I used to work in a nursing home pick up few hours but had worked full time for almost 4 years from 2012 -2015 one on one with a client which I stayed until the end of her journey. Working with elderly people is my passion. I grew up with my grandma and I seen how sad it is to be old and alone. They need somebody to talk and it might be a repeatitive conversation but it's alright. Being there for them as a companion is priceless.I also have 2 years in physical therapy and last year I went back to college as an undergraduate student at Olivet Nazarene University trying to pursue my nursing career.I had to stop though because it was a far of a commute to school and work and home.I believe living in life is a non stop learning.We learn new things every day from the people we meet and I believe things happens for a reason.I am currently working as a machine operator in one of the great company but I am still longing to do what I love to do which is my passion.
