About Maria

Experience: 30 yrs

Hi! My name is Maria and I have been a caregiver for adults and the elderly for over 30 years, starting out as a volunteer at the Red Cross when I was 20 years old. From this point onwards, I have gained invaluable experience in providing tailored, professional personal care. I've worked as a companion and also as a manual hard-working laborer. Furthermore, I've worked in hospice care and in nursing homes with clients that had alzheimers, cancer, dementia, incontinence, multiple sclerosis, paralysis, parkinsons, schizophrenia and strokes just to name a few. References are available and will happily be provided upon request. I am conscientious, gentle and patient and hold my work to an ethical and high standard - as is expected of me. I do not judge and am LGBTQ friendly. I am also an animal lover at heart, especially when it comes to cats! Feel free to chat with me anytime and please ask any questions you may have and thank you for your consideration.

Maria is a very caring and kind individual. It was a great relief to have her care for my elderly mother in her Michigan home and even in Florida despite Maria's residence in Chicago. She has a lot of love and attention for those in need and she followed instructions well. Her patience is above and beyond which her experience proves and she's always looking out for your best interests ! With that said, I wholeheartedly recommend her !
