My name is Alyssa and I am an independent contractor who specializes in homecare. I love being a caregiver, and I am EXCEPTIONAL at what I don I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the elderly and the differently abled, even since I was a child.
I have been working with special needs individuals, the elderly and vulnerable, and those with physical disabilities for over ten years. I enjoy my job and take pride in my work, and it is apparent in the quality of care I provide.
I have an Associates Degree in Psychology, a Bachelors in Human Services, and am also a NC Board Certified Human Services Practitioner, with multiple certifications working with special populations. I treat all consumers equally, but I have a special bond with those who have advanced dementia, or who are more noticeably on the spectrum. I am very nurturing with my clients- I strive to include them, uplift them, and empower them, because so many of these populations are treated like a burden. When someone asks what makes me happy, the answer is, making those around me happy, and my clients have Always been happy with the care I provide them, and so is my mother company, Eldercare.
And that is why I am unmatched at what I do- I don't just come to work and wait for it to be over. I enjoy the time I have with my clients, and because I show it so transparently, they enjoy the time with me as well. My specialties include, but are not limited to- hospice, dementia, Cerebral Palsy, downs syndrome, feeders, Parkinsons, autism, end of life, errands, bathing, transfers, hoyer lift, intake and casework, etc. Contact me for regular times or for respite care of your loved one. You will be able to relax and take a well-deserved rest from providing care because you will never have to worry about them when I'm around- I treat them like my own family and they will end up "adopting" me. Let's get together!
