Shaneka’s Bio
Hello, my name is Shaneka Carpenter, and I have worked professionally with the elderly for over 10 years. Caring for seniors is not just something I do, it’s something that truly matters to me.
I currently assist and help care for my 69-year-old mother, and prior to that, I helped care for my grandmother when she was 88 years old. These personal experiences, along with my professional background, have given me a deep level of respect, patience, and empathy for older adults.
I have always found myself in roles where I can serve and support others. I strongly believe in treating seniors with dignity, kindness, and compassion. I have zero tolerance for mistreatment, especially toward the elderly and children.
I am also a proud mother of two wonderful children (ages 12 and 8 months), and family is everything to me. One day, I hope to open my own daycare facility to continue serving families in my community.
I currently work for the Postal Service, which keeps me active and energetic. In my free time, I enjoy arts and crafts, nature, cooking, organizing, and watching game shows. I have a warm, bubbly personality and truly enjoy building meaningful connections.
I am looking to lend a helping hand while doing what I love, providing dependable, respectful, and compassionate companion care.
If you or a loved one could benefit from reliable support and companionship, please feel free to reach out. I would love to connect.
