Jerilyn’s Bio

I was born a care-giver personality and have continued my entire life taking care of animals, plants and the elderly. I have a giant heart for seniors and believe they deserve our compassion and respect. After receiving my license in Home Health Care, I immediately began working, privately, for families with high standards of care needs for their mothers. I have many excellent references and have passed multiple criminal background checks. I am responsible, kind, compassionate, sensitive and completely honest. Of the 7 families I have worked for, 5 of my clients were Alzheimer's patients so I am experienced with their care needs. Each of my past jobs have ended with either my clients being moved to a residential facility or with their passing. I have never lost a job for any other reason. I take my care-giving responsibilities seriously and have never been late for work nor have I taken any vacation days.
I am American born and only English speaking, not bilingual. Available for full time/ part time work; live out only. Pet care is welcome. Transportation only provided if family has an automobile for transport/ errand use. Checks are accepted.
